CONGRATULATIONS ARE APPRECIATED IN NM

[Bonnie Hopkins <bahh@UNM.EDU>]

As I gave my BIG6 presentation Friday at NMLDate: Tue, 28 Apr 1998 00:39:28 EDT
amazed that some of my closest professional friends are folks I have
never met --except online through LM_NET.   Your kind words as well as a
real understanding of the importance of the award are what feed the
"soul".

Thank you .  I apologize for the typos as I just let the thoughts flow and
did not proof.  I must clarify that I would like to duplicate the efforts
of Sheryl Smith, Library Coordinator for the State of Utah in the
Department of Education.  I heard about her work from Mike Eisenberg when
taking his Big6 course in Syracuse a couple of summers ago.  He had just
returned from doing a Utah statewide institute with her for teachers,
administrators and librarians.  I was impressed with her efforts to
organize the whole state to use the Big6.

Would love to hear from some UTAH librarians that participated in this
effort.  I have talked to Sheryl Smith on the phone and briefly met her at
AASL in Portland.  She is doing great work for Utah.

Thanks again for your kind words of congratulations.

Subject: Gen: Book for Jr. High on ISSUES

Hi,
Our Jr. High English teacher is having her class write a persuasive essay on
various current issues, i.e. violence and T.V., the death penalty, gun
control, etc.  Considering we have a small library, does anyone have any
suggestions as to what resources (books and magazines for instance) I should
guide them to?  Perhaps a book that describes the history of each issue along
with pros and cons would be nice?...  Readers Guide (although we don't have
but five different     magazines)?...Internet?  I will see if the companies
from whom we get our magazine subscriptions from will send an index of back
issue articles.

Thanks for your consideration.
