Welcome, Thanks, & Codes!

Welcome, Damean!

We're delighted to welcome Damean to the BPL staff! He has taken the position of Tech Services Assistant and has already rolled up his sleeves and started right in to work. Damean comes to us with library experience already, and is an author with his own website and blog.  Check it out at dameanmathews.com.  If you haven't had a chance to meet him yet, please stop by and introduce yourself.

Door Code
The door codes have been entered into the system so you should now be able to enter the building by typing your code onto the key pad beside the Employee Entrance.  Your code should be the same as the time clock code. If you didn't have a time clock code, then it should be the old alarm code.  If you don't have either of those things, check with Amy.

Do try your codes.  If there's a problem, let Amy know.  Also, keys will continue to work, but the codes are easier than the finicky door.

Thanks!
The hot dog feast was fabulous, thanks to all the wonderful staff contributions.  It was all greatly appreciated!  Cooks-- take a bow!

(Hot) Dog Days, Birth Days, and Starry, Starry Nights

Farewell to Dog Days

We are celebrating the end of Dog Days with a hot dog feast!  Brenda G. will bring the dogs, Jeanne will bring chili (canned, you will be glad to hear), and a dessert will be provided but if you want to bring something sweet, go for it!  Check the whiteboard in the staff area for a list of who plans to bring what.

Star and Moon Gazing

The JCC had a very successful program with a public viewing of the sky using the new telescopes and they plan to do it again on September 5 and 6.  Times will follow.  Continuing Education credit will be available for staff who wish to participate. 

Happy Birthday
