Since it is summer, with a lot of librarians signed off, it might be a
good idea to check out the archives
<http://www.eduref.org/lm_net/archive/>. I know we've disscussed Teen
advisory groups (TAG), parent volunteers, displays, reading constest,
getting the word out, promotion, faculty interaction and collaboration,
etc over the last couple of years.
