For the fourth time in the past six years, the library has been named a “Star Library” in Library Journal magazine’s annual index of public library service. The announcement was made in that publication’s November issue, based on 2011 statistics. The edition ranks libraries as three, four or five stars based on circula- tion, visits per capita, program attendance per capita and computer usage. Libraries submit annual reports to their state libraries, and Library Journal uses that information to create its index. The Butler library was ranked among libraries with annual budgets between $200,000- $399,999. “Everyone works so hard,” said director Ellen Stuckey. “The staff really deserves the recognition. “We’ve really focused on pre-literacy and getting children to read.” Over the years, the library has implemented and maintained several initiatives, including the 1,000 Book Club, Kindergarten Prep School (KiPS), StoryTime, Book Buddies and Begin in Books programs and the ever-popular summer reading program. “I’m very proud of my staff,” Stuckey said. “The staff really deserves this because they work very hard to make this library operate easily. They’re all very good at what they do.” In all, Indiana placed seven libraries on the index, while neighboring Ohio ranked second once again with 32 libraries on the list. New York had the most with 37. Eleven states had no libraries on the list. The index is broken down into nine expenditure groups, from the smallest —$100,000 to $199,000 — to the largest, for libraries with annual expenditures in excess of $30 million. The largest libraries are in places like Cleveland, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Seattle and Toledo.

Children must be 16 years of age or younger and reside within the Butler city limits. Applications are to be returned to the police department no later than Monday, Dec. 9. Applications must include a valid telephone number. A copy of a current utility bill to show proof of residency in Butler must also be included.

Children are encouraged to buy a needed item for themselves, such as a coat, hat, gloves or sweatshirts. Participating children are usually able to purchase gifts for other family members.

surrounding townships, those numbers aren’t factored in because they aren’t part of the library’s service district.

The City of Butler is the only entity within the library’s taxing district, with approximately 2,600 residents.

In 2011, each resident checked out nearly 22 books, made 14.4 visits to the library, attended 2.31 programs and used the library’s computers just over fi ve times.

Each student attending school at DeKalb Eastern — Eastside High School or

Butler or Riverdale elemen-tary schools — is eligible for a free library card.

Two community rooms are regularly used for events and meetings. The library also has a variety of after-school activities for teens and elementary children, Stuckey said. Adults can participate in cooking, knitting, sewing or tai chi classes, and the Friends of the Library group conducts several events to raise funds for the library.

“We like to have something for everyone,” she said.

Library from Page 1

“Many of our patrons have no other place to use the Internet for e-government services, email, job searches or homework,” Stuckey said. “With this grant, the library is able to continue fi lling the growing need for public internet access in the Butler community.”

The project was supported

by the Institute of Museum and Library Services under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act administered by the Indiana State Library. The Institute of Museum and Library Services is the primary source of federal support for the nation’s 123,000 libraries and 17,500 museums.

Society banquet set for Saturday

BY DENNIS KRUSEFreedom is never more

than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

Every Nov. 11 we celebrate Veterans Day. We pause to remember and honor all who have served this country and fought for our freedoms.

It’s diffi cult to sum up our deep appreciation for American patriots and heroes on just this one day, because their sacrifi ce and dedication should be acknowledged every day of the year.

In Indiana, the commit-ment to serving our country is engrained in our Hoosier roots. The Hoosier State has the sixth-largest National Guard and Reserve in the U.S. According to the Indiana Department of Veterans Affairs, there are nearly 550,000 veterans in Indiana – more than 33,000 of whom are women. In fact, 75 Hoosiers have been awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for their courage and sacrifi ce. These service men and women are

following in the footsteps of generations of Hoosier heroes.

The freedoms each and every one of us enjoys should be cherished, because as former President Reagan noted they are never more than a generation away from extinction. That’s why we are so grateful for the men and women who sacrifi ce their lives to preserve the values and liberties we hold dear. It’s our duty to honor them any way we can, and Veterans Day is one way we can do so. May we never take our freedom – and their sacrifi ces – for granted.

When you see someone in uniform or a veteran, please take the time to thank them for their service.

May God bless our military veterans, their families and the United States of America.

What do you think?Dennis Kruse

(R-Auburn) is a State Senator, representing DeKalb County.

Give thanks to veterans
