Library Advisory Board <br />January 16, 2002 <br />Page 2 <br />Vicki Terlap showed samples of the Personal Picks cards to be displayed in <br />the library. Vicki also stated that she had talked to Emily Kirkman about <br />the kindergarten programs, and found that this had been tried previously <br />and the attendance was poor, but she will research this more. Vicki hasn't <br />been able to work on bringing an author to Paris. <br />The Friends of the Library had no report. <br />Betty Landon, Director, stated that she was working on a brochure for the <br />Library in Spanish. Peggy Guthrie provided the translation. Betty plans <br />to place these in various locations around the city. Betty attended a <br />NETLS meeting in Van Alstyne and a marketing workshop in Greenville <br />on PR for Libraries. They presented good ideas and she stated that the <br />library might do a campaign entitled: Paris Public Library — What's in it <br />for you? The library staff is in the process of moving the biographies and <br />large print books. Also, they are moving the fiction and science fiction <br />books. Weeding is taking place as these books are moved. She plans to <br />make the shelves looser, by filling them only 3/4 full. She showed us one <br />method of selecting books for the library, by using Advance Magazine. She <br />also stated that the library will be closed for Martin Luther King Day. <br />The meeting adjourned at 4:35 p.m. The next meeting will be held on <br />February 20th at 4:00 p.m. in the Gallery. <br />Anna Davis <br />Date Approved <br />
