Libraries Receive 3M Security Systems in April
2004 3M in partnership with AASL have awarded grant money to (Emily Damron) Winburn Middle Library and (Robin Fannin) Crawford Middle Library. The Salute to Schools program provides 3M detection system to help middle and high school library media centers with limited resources reduce the loss of valuable library materials. The 100 recipients of this year’s program will receive up to two detection systems for the entrance/exit of their media centers, and a supply of Tattle-Tape security strips from 3M for marking printed material (i.e., books) -- a package with an average value of about $15,000. |

| PROCESSING
NEWS As of April 29, 2004, there are still about 70 purchase orders which have still not come into Media Services for processing. These will be top priority for the 4 Media Technicians who work on the database. As there is lag in the new materials' arrivals, they will process the things you send from your school in the order of their arrival. The boxes you have sent from your school, presently date back to a late January arrival time. Thank you for remembering that you must check the UNION for the record and if it is there, you are to do the processing of the book or AV locally and not send it to Media Services for processing. |
