Clip Art: I got a call today from a librarian who was having trouble with the CSLP clip art (the disc that comes in your manual). This year, the disc is a DVD, because they put some super-cool videos on them. If you don’t have a DVD reader on your computer, you will need a CD. Let me know if this is the case for you and you need me to make you a copy of the non-video files.

Postcards: Also…I got a message from Mark Arend in the Winnefox System: “One of our smaller libraries is getting postcards from around the world through this program” (A website that allows you to sign up to exchange post cards with people from around the world).

Star Wars: Maybe you were excited about the Star Wars costumed characters coming to the library for free that Terry Ehle described at the Summer Library Program Workshop this year. She used http://www.rebellegion.com/. I found another WI group, and their MN counterparts, as well.
