JanuaryFebruary 2016 Volume LI No 3

As we think about the Friends allow

me to paraphrase an old song with this ldquoWhat a Difference a Half Century Makesrdquo

April 2016 will mark 50 years of the Friends doing what is necessary to make the Schenectady County Public Library the best there is Without any mathematical proof I would venture to say that the majority of the libraryrsquos patrons werenrsquot born when this all began Yet today the many volunteers who do the work of the Friends are as enthusiastic as ever

Our 50th anniversary year will begin with the January 5th Schenectady Today Show as Ann Parillo interviews Rita Moore Anniversary Chair Jan Walz Beat the Snow Coordinator and myself The program will be streamed that day with film airing on the 6th at 10 am and 6 pm on Channel 16

Be sure to join us on Sunday January 10 at 130 pm at the Central Library for our major kick off event A brief program with refreshments will highlight 2016rsquos upcoming events The first in the Beat the Snow music programs will follow at 230 pm in the McChesney Room

While yoursquore marking your calendars donrsquot forget the Monday Noon Programs which will continue to feature timely book reviews a science series and special features programs

April will bring more than showers with our One CountyOne Book author Jacqueline Woodson coming to Schenectady for a number of events centering around her books

Because this is a special anniversary year the Annual Dinner will be enlarged and will be held at the Riverstone Manor in Scotia on Saturday April 16 You will want to be there for this special event as the 50th anniversary yearbook and video will be unveiled

The Friends are as committed to computer literacy as well as traditional literacy and provides free computer classes from September through June Warm weather brings the regular summer reading programs for children and adults also provided by the Friends

There will be an added attraction in 2016 as the Bornt Family Literacy Center will be up and running A significant contribution has been made by the Friends to ensure that the Center has everything needed to serve the literacy needs of the city

community The Center will be open regular branch hours and you are urged to drop in and see your library dollars at work

The Friends are getting younger A Junior Friends membership program was begun in 2015 and hopes are to have youngsters from ages 13 to 18 become a major part of the volunteer efforts of the Friends

Be sure to look for announcements of special events and sales at the Whitney and for a major author visit in the fall

For those of you who are comic book and superhero fans or just want to have fun the library will host the 2nd annual Comic Con on July 9 2016 Again funding for this event will be provided by the Friends

Announcements regarding all of the Friends programs and events can be found in the newsletter on the Friends website and in the local newspapers

Finally it has been my pleasure to be involved with the Friends for 14 years so I am a Johnny-come-lately We will be honoring and remembering those who stepped up in April of 1966 and formed this wonderful support system of which you are a part Herersquos to the next 50 years and beyond -John Karl President

We are pleased with the success of our first poetry contest and we look forward to similiar events in the future Here is Marilynrsquos poem

October TaleTherersquos something in October we can feelmdash

Reality unrealThe smoky nights and apple-scented days

Are merely overlaysOn some appalling and archaic forceThat follows its incalculable course

The traffic passes up and down the streetWe part and meet

But therersquos a warp in the continuumWhere all the past and all the yet-to-come

Slip into Now within a secondrsquos changeFamiliar things look strange

Shapes alter in the field a rabbit screamsAnd men wake troubled from uneasy dreams

In other ages men met force with forceTo hold it to its course

By a concerted willAnd Samhain fires blazed on every hill

But we take no precautions now at allmdashAnd it is closest to us in the fall

What a year this has been More books have been donated than ever before Our volunteers have been kept extremely busy Years past Wednesday was about the only day volunteers spent in sortingshelving books for the upcoming sale Now on any given day you may find volunteers upstairs at the Central library working An important goal of our workers is to find perfect items to be sold at the Whitney Book Corner What do we do with books not sold or not able to be sold at the book sales We have

found an amazing business discoverbookscom that buys books to help with all our efforts to fund programs and activities for the Schenectady County LibraryThe company has the following mission statement and beliefsldquoWe strive to divert books from landfills help fund library sustainability and through our partners provide meaningful solutions to the global problem of illiteracy We fundamentally believe reuse is the best possible form of recycling and our business model is centered on this core value This focus allows us to get books in the

hands of people who want and need them most rather than allowing them to become waste or languish unread Since our inception we have donated over 89 million to non-profit organizations in North America and internationally and that number continues to grow ldquoPlease mark your calendars for the Winter Book Sale on February 6 and 7 2016 Nonfiction and fiction books will be sold in the warmth of the McChesney Room - Bob Symons Susie and Rich Leon Robin and Fred Eddy

AROUND THE LIBRARY

FROM THE SCRAPBOOK

During the Friends 50th anniversary year we will be sharing photos and articles from the libraryrsquos archives

We start the year off with this July 1982 photo of librarian Nancy Gifford reading to children on a porch on Locust Avenue in Schenectady Nancy was a ldquodoorstepperrdquo part of a SCPL project which began in 1968 When the children couldnrsquot go

to the library the library would come to them A ringing cowbell would herald the arrival of the doorsteppers Serena Butch now Assistant Director of SCPL could also be seen in the neighborhoods reading to the children The program funded by the Friends of the Library continued until 1984 making it the longest running SCPL outreach program

WINTER CONCERT SERIES RETURNS

Celebrate Celebrate The brass quintet Route Fifty 5 will begin the Friends of

SCPLrsquos 50th anniversary celebration with music that reflects those fifty years This well-trained and creative group will be just the first of many exciting acts for our annual Beat the Snow Concert Series

Time and time again we hear that music is good for our health as well as our soul And it is free Sunday

afternoons from 230-330 pm beginning January 10th through March 20th at the McChesney Room there will be music for your enjoyment presented by local artists as part of their community service (they volunteer) This yearrsquos roster of performers contains some old favorites as well as newbies

that usually play publicly for $1525 per concert and we get to see them for free Another reason is that it helps to keep ourselves and our community well Here is a place to meet with people who like music Looking at our concert list I am grateful for the generous spirit of players in our community Be sure to support them with you presence and have a delightful afternoon - Janice Walz
