<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">By the end of
November, Emma Clark Library patrons will have access to multiple,
low-commitment online book clubs, in which readers can log on and participate
anytime, from anywhere.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">After signing
up online, patrons will receive a daily email from one or more books clubs they
have chosen to join. The email will
include a short, 5-minute excerpt from a book.
If they like the “teasers” they’ve read that week, they may stop by the
library to borrow the book and finish it. If they are not impressed by the excerpt,
there is no pressure to read more. They
can simply wait for next week’s book.
Each week a different book is highlighted through the service provider,
DearReader.com. </span><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">Participants
may choose from genres such as Classics, Fiction, My</span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">stery, and Non-Fiction.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">These book
clubs are perfect for people who would love to join a club, but do not have
access to one through family and friends.
Or for those whose schedules do not permit them to join a regular book
club. There is no obligation to read the
book or attend meetings at certain times.
Readers may comment and discuss online – anytime, at their convenience –
with other booklovers from all over the United States and Canada.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">As a bonus, sometimes
the authors are encouraged to join discussions of their books as well.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">“We are
excited that this will be a gateway to reading and discussing great books for
our patrons who may not have had this opportunity previously,” says Connie
Roberts, the Reference Librarian who spearheaded the project.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"><br /></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">The book club
will be easy to find on the library’s homepage, </span><a href="http://www.emmaclark.org/"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">www.emmaclark.org</span></a><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">, starting the end of November. Click on “Online Book Clubs” and register
your email.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

</tbody></table>
Jeanette Martone works from photos taken during her travels to the developing world where she volunteers for projects to assist the local community. By limiting color, and emphasizing texture in her pencil drawings, attention is focused on the essential elements of the subject.<br />
Ms. Martone attended SUNY Purchase, took courses in botanical illustration at the New York Botanical Gardens, and also spent a semester studying design and anthropology at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark.<br />
Her works have been exhibited at museums and galleries in the U.S and abroad, including the Neuberger Museum in Purchase, New York, SXU Gallery at St. Xavier University, and Ai Gallery at the Illinois Institute of Art in Chicago, Illinois. In New York City, her work has been featured in exhibitions at Artists’ Space, Lincoln Center, Marymount Manhattan College Gallery, and the New York Botanical Gardens. Her work has been published in the magazines “The Artists’ Magazine”, “American Artist Drawing”, “Art Calendar”, “The Other Side” and the books “Portrait Inspirations, “The Best of Oil Painting”, and “The Distillery”.<br />

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Starting
this school year, Emma Clark Library and RC Murphy Junior High will begin a
partnership where the library will bring a floating collection of young adult
books to the school to give the students greater access to a wider variety of
books.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">Nanette
Feder, Teen Services Librarian at Emma Clark, approached Betsy Knox, School
Librarian, with the idea in the spring. The
program gives RC Murphy Junior High the opportunity to circulate much of the
young adult fiction that they do not have in their collection. Additionally, library circulation drops
during the school year because many teens are too busy with school and
extracurricular activities to get to the library, so it is a win-win situation
for all. RC Murphy was chosen because it
is the secondary school in the district that is farthest from the library, and
therefore those children live further away which makes it more difficult to get
to the library.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">The
library will be lending approximately 100 age-appropriate paperback and
hardcover books at a time. The books
will have a 3-month loan period which would be extended if necessary. The
library would then swap out 25% of the collection every 2 months. The school will set aside a bookcase to house
this collection and identify it as Emma Clark Library’s books.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">This
is the second program of its type – back in May, the library started a floating
collection with the Long Island State Veterans Home.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

both local authors and our readers, the new Local Focus will let readers easily
browse both critically reviewed and not-yet-discovered titles by authors who
live and work in the communities surrounding the library, as it simultaneously
introduces those authors to their neighbors,” explains Joan S. Kahnhauser, Head
Adult Reference Librarian.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

for children will be kept in the Children’s Room. The collections will be shelved
alphabetically by author keeping the focus where it belongs – on the
author. Books will be searchable by both
title and author in the library catalog.

<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">On
Wednesday, July 31<sup>st</sup>, teen volunteers from Emma Clark Library will
be at Jefferson’s Ferry, a retirement community in South Setauket, from 10:00am

such as iPads, cell phones, etc.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

approached <st1:place w:st="on">Jefferson</st1:place>’s Ferry with the idea

Jefferson Ferry’s Librarian Claire Donohue and Allison Halperin, Program

Library saw a need to help our seniors in our community to overcome this
frustration. What better way to do it than starting with <st1:place w:st="on">Jefferson</st1:place>’s
Ferry,” says Ms. Mullen. “There, we can
help our seniors become more familiar with their devices – help them understand
how they work and tweak them to meet their certain needs. Teens in our
community will sit down with an individual to do just that – make them feel
comfortable.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

There is brand new signage identifying plantings for the curious public, including a tool for the tech-savvy. Each sign includes a QR code. Simply hold your mobile device up to the code, and it will bring you to a webpage with more information on the planting – such as origin, bloom time and zones – along with how much sun, type of soil, and the height and spread of the planting to help you decide if you’d like to plant them in your own garden. Webpages include links to "how-to" videos, as well as gardening book recommendations that may be checked out from the library.</span></span><br />

Clark Library has just started a new program with the Long Island State Veterans
Home at Stony Brook University. Volunteers from the library brought around 60 large print books to
the home, and they plan on rotating the books about once a month. Books are selected by Connie Roberts, Adult
Reference Librarian at Emma Clark. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">“<span style="background: white;">The Veterans Home is very excited about our new
partnership with Emma Clark Library,” says Susan K. Helmus, Director of
Volunteer Services. ”Our residents can
really benefit from large print books, yet over the years we have found these
hard to come by. The partnership with Emma Clark Library is such a
wonderful resource for our residents. They are looking forward to
perusing the large assortment of titles.”</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

some patrons, it is difficult getting to the physical library building for a
variety of reasons, including transportation and health issues. This partnership brings the library to
them. The program with the Veterans Home

homes in the community as well. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
