Library Tours

  • The Wine Library tour in Sonoma County was successful.
  • Tiffany is working on setting up a tour of Google.
  • Getty Villa Tour is coming up.  Email Natalie Bulick for more information.
  • Film Archives Tour is set up for Wednesday, April 25th, after E-Portfolios are due.  An announcement will be distributed the first week of April, and attendance will be limited to 20 participants.
  • Ozgun Tumer suggested a demonstration of Virtual Reference. A Sunday in March is a good time for this. More info to come.
  • Vlasta suggested a tour of the UCR library special collections.  Vlasta will post to the listserv with more information.

Members that go could write an article for the Call Number that might fulfill a competency requirement for their E-Portfolio.

Institutions are very open to library students, and it is easy for anyone to get involved and set up a tour.

Fundraising

T-shirt and mug available for $10.  It’s a special deal to get rid of the old items in preparation for a redesigned look. Visit :: fundraising page :: for more info.

  • David needs someone to help him with ordering the t-shirts.
  • Brenda Ramirez volunteered.
  • David has a contact for the new t-shirts.
  • We are looking for a new design for the t-shirt.
  • Lucy suggested that we use the travel mug design for the t-shirts.

David has come up with a lot of fundraising ideas. One idea is an art silent auction.

  • Annie has a friend who could donate gallery space for the auction during the Pomona art walk.
  • Vlasta and Gabriel suggested that we also offer a virtual art auction for people that can’t make it to the actual auction.

The money goes to LISSTEN programs, in particular the graduation ceremony. Some money comes as donations from organizations and librarians. Ask if there are any questions about fundraising
