Library Use Calculator: What's your library worth to you?

This space is normally for news from your libraries, but you might want to make use of this. It's based on work first done in Massachusetts, adapted in Maine, with some further adaptations to Iowa. We know how valuable the library is, this can help everyone else figure it out. Take a look for yourself at http://www.neilsa.org/consulting/calculator.html.

Art @ yourlibrary TM

Carnegie-Stout Public Library is celebrating Arts & Humanities month by bringing a unique exhibit to the Library. Art @yourlibrary® represents a partnership with twenty local artists who will exhibit a variety of art works, from watercolors to sculpting and oil paintings to quilting and pottery.

An opening reception will be held from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m. on Friday, October 20 in the Library's historic Rotunda. During the reception artists will be on hand to meet people and discuss their works. Dr. Randy Lengleng will give a brief talk on the relationship between the Library and art throughout its 104-year history. Entrance will be through the historic doors of the Library. The event is open to the public and admission is free. Refreshments will be served.

Artists exhibiting at the reception include: Aaron Butcher, John Bissell, Gail Chavenelle, Odra Erberhardt, Tom Gibbs, Donna Gibson, Sharon Krapfl, Ada Kauffman, Dave Kettering, Teri Mozena, Ioana Mamali, Stormy Mochal, Cynthia Nelms-Byrne, Tim Olson, Abigail Robertson, Elizabeth Robertson, Rich Robertson, Gene Tully, John Tully, Rosanne Wilgenbush
