New Friday Notes: notes for next week

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Waverly Public Library announced the new director: Sarah Meyer-Reyerson

Last shot at low cost retro:

East Central Library Services will do retroconversion for libraries automating using Bibliofile ITS for Windows software.  The cost is $.20 per record matched and $.35 per disk used.  Any shipping charges to return cards will be billed to the library.  The records will be in MARC format and can be used by Follett or Sagebrush.  We do exact and near matches.           

If you are interested, please let us know by June 21st.  Our subscription will expire on June 30.  If we don’t have committed libraries by then, we will not renew our subscription.

If you have any questions or would like to have ECLS do your retro, contact Linda Lumsden llumsde@ecls.lib.ia.us

Waverly Public Library director stepping down
The director of the Waverly Public Library will step down after almost 30 years of service.
Pat Coffie served the library since 1976. Her last day will be June 30.

When she retires , Coffie plans to commit more time to visiting her family, storytelling and puppetry.  But she won't be a stranger to the library..

"I'll be here a lot to feed my habits." Coffie said. "I do like to read."

Assistant director Sarah Meyer-Reyerson of Shell Rock will step up to head the library. The library board approved the hire Tuesday.

MeyerReyerson served as the director of the Evandale Public Library from 1996-97 and has worked for the Waverly library since. She is a graduate of Luther College and is working toward a  master's degree at the University  of Iowa School of Library and Information Science.

Details are pending on a farewell open house for Coffie. The next library board meeting is at 5:15 p.m. June 20.
