 held a statewide directors’ meeting last Wednesday to discuss issues being faced due to COVID.  There were 86 directors present from all sizes and types of libraries.  As I listened to the directors and read the comments in the chat I was struck, once again,
 by the dedication and compassion that the directors expressed regarding the health and safety of their staff and the commitment to their communities.   Staying on top of all of the various changes including safety requirements, health concerns, problematic
 patrons, lack of resources, etc. is a difficult and stressful job.  Doing so combined with care for staff and community is commendable but oftentimes without thanks.  I know that many of you have heard the thanks from patrons but I also know that there have
 been confrontations about masks, services, etc.  I just want to say thank you personally for all that everyone working in our libraries has been doing.  My 82 year old mother is by herself in Columbus and the Worthington Public Library and the Columbus Metropolitan
 Library have been her lifeline.  She is completely adept in terms of technology and has continued to borrow eBooks, DVD’s and uses curbside services for print materials.  In addition, she has been engaging intellectually since the beginning of November in
 the “Let’s Talk About Race – One Book, One Community” lecture series.  I am so grateful that during this period of time, when our family is spread out across the state and country, she has the library to keep her connected.  My mom’s story isn’t unique.  The
 mother of another NEO-RLS staff member is also alone and she has a one hour appointment online each week with a staff member at the Salem Public Library to help her out with anything she needs related to technology.  It is the highlight of her week.  So, when
 you are having a day filled with guilt, indecision, stress or worries about your health, know that there are many people out there for whom you are making the difference between isolation and survival.  I am truly grateful for all that you are doing.  Thanks
 and have a safe and healthy week! <br>

<br>
Dublin, OH - January 14, 2021 - Patron Point is delighted to announce it has received a Platinum award in LibraryWorks’ seventh annual Modern Library Awards (MLAs.) The MLAs were created to recognize the top products and services in the library industry in
 a truly unbiased format. Products and services were submitted in the Fall using a simple application, and then were posted on a private site with an enhanced description and attendant materials. These products were batched into small groups and sent to the
 LibraryWorks database of more than 80,000 librarians at public, K-12, academic, and special libraries. Only customers with experience with these products/services in their facilities were permitted to judge the products/services, resulting in a truly unbiased
 score.  <br>
<br>
Each judge scored the product on a numeric basis from 1-10 on a series of questions regarding functionality, value, customer service, etc.  Judges comments can be viewed here
