Library System

and more. Topics will include: a) Is your library's problem unusual?; b) Is
your annual loss rate (non-returned materials/total circulation) excessive?;
c) Are there problems with particular types of patrons?  New borrowers?
Students?; d) What are effective/efficient notices?  U.S. Mail?  E-mail?
Phone calls?; e) Are collection agencies cost effective?; f) Is your fine
policy a help or hindrance to resolving overdue problems? Participants are
encouraged to bring three years of circulation and overdue statistics, fine
policies, collection agency policies and experience.

PLAGIARISM AND THE INTERNET
Presented by: Cynthia Jasper-Parisey, US/MS Library Director, Cincinnati
Country Day School
Date & Time: Fri, Sep 26 from 12:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m.
Fees: This workshop is FREE of charge to everyone!
Cheating, copying, and plagiarism are not new concepts and cannot be
"blamed" on the Internet. Web technology, however, has made cheating much
easier and educators have been searching for new ways to detect and control
these practices. Cynthia will discuss what is (and what is not) plagiarism,
plagiarism indicators or clues, how to confirm plagiarism using the Internet
and other tools, and ways to prevent plagiarism. This is a videoconference.
