Feather Friends of Winter Reading Club Update

As of today 50 sign-ups !
Patrons should start coming in with their BINGO's. Remember that the seed cake rewards are in the freezer and also  make sure that you check off the box on the sign-up sheet that they got a BINGO!

Immigration and Naturalization Forms

Every week a young woman comes in and asks to have printed the form NC-400, Immigration and Naturalization form. It is 21 pages. When asked she always has some flimsy excuse as to why she need this yet again.

I have printed out this form at least 10 times over the last months.

From now on I am going to charge her for every page past 10.

Has anyone else had a similar experience with her?

See Brian for more details.

Thanks,

Brian

Program Sign-ups

Susan Hope kindly reminds us to make sure that we enter the check # when signing up patrons to any programs. It is very helpful to do so, especially with a program such as AARP or Regular Defensive Driving , which is solely payable by check or Money Order.

Our New Blog

We are trying to create a dedicated blog for the Adult Reference Department. All members of the department will have "Author" status, so that after logging in anyone can post or comment or edit. Look for an invitation in your inbox and create a WordPress account. I believe that there is a setting to enable copies of any posting to be delivered to your email account. More details to follow. See Brian for any suggestions.

What's in the Community Information Room?

Absentee Ballot Application Forms are now found in the Community Information room. Also found in this area are train schedules, authorized flyers about local events, recycling bins for : batteries and eyeglasses, also Huntington Town program information, a bus map of Suffolk County and a USPS Drop Box.

iPhone/iPad Classes

The problem with signing up for all 3 classes at one time is now fixed. When registering patrons for these classes, please ascertain that they actually have an iPhone or an iPad and make sure that they can attend all three classes. If they cannot make all three classes please make a note saying that. There is another series of classes in February and two in March ! People on the waiting list get first dibs on the next months class. Thanks, BA
