DVD fines, Boating Test, and More!

Lower Fines for DVDs!
The Board of Trustees voted to lower DVD fines from $2 per day to $1 per day.  The system admin has been notified.  DVDs checked out after August 1, 2016 should reflect this change.  Please note that items checked out BEFORE August 1 may carry the same $2 per day charge that was in effect when the items were checked out.


JCC Offers Boating Exam!
The Jones Creativity Center is now offering the Tennessee Boating Exam!  They are working on becoming a testing site for Virginia as well.  Please direct any inquires about the  either Boating Exam to the fine folks of the JCC. 

 

Time to Update!
Brenda is updating some staff information, such as T-shirt size. No, we don't know of any free T-shirts in the offing, but a couple of times we've had sudden offers (BPL Foundation, for instance) and Brenda has had to submit information on very short notice.  Thanks!

Kitchen Witches
This little witch was hanging out in a restaurant in Prague-- and it was the best place we ate!
In many northern European countries, you can find a little witch doll hanging in the kitchen. These are considered good luck, as the Kitchen Witch (or Cottage Witch, as she's sometimes known) keeps roasts from burning, pots from boiling over, and ensures good order in the kitchen.  The BPL version keeps our Staff Lounge in good order! Thanks to Christy H., Ambrea, Susie, and Candess for being our very own KWs.  From our chart, it appears Christy H. has been the most active of late, so there will be a little something for you in your cubicle. (And no, it's not another broom!)


We appreciate your efforts, ladies! Thanks!

Happy Birthday!
