This award is given to Congressman Regula for his distinguished support of libraries and education. The Public Service Award will be presented on May 4, 2005, at a reception following National Library Legislative Day when hundreds of library supporters go to Washington D.C. to talk to their legislators about the importance of supporting library funding, policy, and legislation. The event is in its 60th year and is sponsored by the Washington Office of the American Library Association. "I'm truly honored to be selected for this award," said Congressman Regula. "I know that libraries are critical to an independent and self-determining democracy. There is no substitute for libraries in supporting life-long learning and continued intellectual growth of our citizens." Congressman Regula joins the ranks of such previous recipients as Senators Oympia Snowe, Russ Feingold, Mark Hatfield, Tom Harkin as well as U.S. Representatives Jay Rockefeller, Peter Hoekstra, and Jack Reed. In addition to this award, Congressman Regula was the 2002 recipient of the Crystal Apple award given by the American Association of School Librarians to an individual or group who has had a significant impact on school libraries and students. According to the Stark County District Library, "Congressman Regula, a strong supporter for libraries, often credits the Bookmobile Department of the Stark County District Library for his love of reading. He would walk quite a distance so he could read the latest magazine, pick up his favorite books on history and read the latest best seller." Friends of Libraries U.S.A. is a national organization providing networking opportunities and educational support for local Friends of Libraries groups across the country. Over 2,000 Friends groups, libraries and individuals belong to FOLUSA representing hundreds of thousands of library supporters. ------_=_NextPart_001_01C53F87.53EF3E50 Content-Type: text/html Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Congressman Regula Receives FOLUSA Public Service Award

Opening Session will feature Jo Budler, State Librarian of Ohio, and Mark Minasi . . . yes, Mark is back! --Mark Minasi is a best-selling author, popular technology columnist, commentator, keynote speaker, and all-around alpha geek. What separates him from many of the other alpha geeks, however, is that he knows how to explain things to normal humans and often make them laugh while doing it. That's reflected in his recent Reader's Choice award for "Favorite Technical Author" at CertCities. More testimony to his popularity with tech world came at a recent SearchWin2000 webcast on tuning computers. At that webcast, Mark drew three times as many attendees as any previous webcast, crashing Yahoo!'s servers. Mark is probably best known for his books in the Mastering series (Mastering Windows Server 2003, Mastering Windows NT Server, Mastering Windows 2000 Server, Mastering XP Professional, etc) and his perennial hardware PC repair and fix-it book The Complete PC Upgrade and Maintenance Guide, now in its 13th edition. His monthly columns in Windows and .NET Magazine are among the best-read in the periodical. Mark has also authored 19 other technology books, spoken on technical topics in 20 countries, and written and performed in a dozen technical education videos. Mark will present three sessions in addition to a keynote speech that is just a bit of "Minasi unplugged:" jokes, stories, and offbeat observations from someone with nearly 30 years in the business but who's managed to avoid becoming "assimilated." PLUS Mark will present three sessions! Comment from a recent attendee: "Take George Carlin, make him technical, clean up the language, and you've got Mark Minasi" --Rooms are being held at the beautiful Embassy Suites Hotel Columbus/Dublin Please contact the hotel at 1 800-EMBASSY or (614) 790-9000 and refer to "TechConnections group" to receive the special rate of $119.00 per night (per room, pre-tax, single or double occupancy).

The "Ohioana Authors" radio series is now aired live on WOSU AM on Monday mornings at 8:50 a.m. rather than at the original time on Friday mornings. Several other NPR stations in the state have also picked up the series. Some are airing the program at the time of their choice and others are only carrying the web site information. You will need to check with your local station to find out what they are doing and when, or, if not, why not? The programs are short, only 3 to 5 minutes long, and include something about the author's ties to Ohio, and the influence the writer and their work had on people, the nation, or the world. In addition to the program, there is a great web site www.ohioana-authors.org with bios on each author, a list of their work, the honors they received, etc., and each program is archived so that it came be heard by clicking on the box, "Listen to NPR" on the web site. Last week, a new section was added for high school English/Language Arts teachers. The Instructions Technology Services of Central Ohio, Inc., a state funded, nonprofit corporation has developed an Ohioana Authors Curriculum to provide teachers with standards-based lesson plans and resources to use in classroom studies of fiction, nonfiction, poetry, drama, science fiction, and children's literature. I thought that you might want to share the information with teachers, students, and school administrators in your area. The literature examined through the series is that which has sprung from the soil of Ohio and that is rooted in the author's particular Ohio outlook. So far, seventeen authors have been featured, including: Rod Serling - Yellow Springs, Nikki Giovanni - Cincinnati, Joan Chase - Wooster, Sherwood Anderson - Clyde and Elyria, Charles Chesnutt - Cleveland, Karen Harper - Columbus, Harriet Beecher Stowe - Cincinnati, Ann Hagedorn - Dayton & Ripley, Katherine Ayers - Columbus, Lois McMaster Bujold - Mansfield & Columbus, Dawn Powell - Mr. Gilead, Erma Bombeck - Dayton, Hart Crane - Warren, Lois Lenski - Springfield & Anna, Ambrose Bierce - Meigs County, Mary Oliver - Cleveland, and James Wright - Martins Ferry. Upcoming authors are Mark Winegardner - Bryan, Alix Kates Shulman - Cleveland, Louis Bromfield - Mansfield, Rita Dove - Akron, and Elsie Janis - Columbus. Check out the web site for the schedule through July.

Ones we think = may be of future use we keep in our main library storage = collection.

I am interested to find out what our counterparts do = at branch level OR at main with last copies:

1) do you even care? Just pitch = them?

2) do you have guidelines about what to keep? =

3) is this determined at branch level or main? =

The filter is server-based so staff turns it off from a control panel on a computer at the public service desk. Generally by the time a patron goes back to the computer and hits refresh on the browser the computer is unfiltered. =20 My general concern about stand-alone products is that you have to have a procedure for keeping the database updated, you can't add a site to a single white list, and anything you do you have to do multiple times. =20 Experience tells me that you want a filter that works either by category or specific URL. Keyword filtering really doesn't work very well and may turn out to be more trouble than it is worth. =20 Also remember that this is a top down process. You are filtering to enforce a Board policy, so be sure that the filter you chose complies with that policy...not just sex, but chat or instant messaging or whatever. =20 I know that this is simplistic, but just for grins take a modified version of the Dr. Laura or Family friendly Libraries (they have a new name which escapes me). Do a Google search on your favorite dirty word, then follow the links until you have violated the Board's policy.

You might look = here:

http://internet= -filter-review.toptenreviews.com/

This is not impartial, but = useful.

Cybersitter and NetNanny get the best marks = for stand-alone products.

Websense and BESS (N2H2) are the = leading server-based products. N2H2 has been bought by another company which = seems to be causing some concern.

We use Websense. It can be pricey, = but it meets our needs. The filter is server-based so staff turns it off from a control panel on a computer at the public service desk. Generally by the = time a patron goes back to the computer and hits refresh on the browser the = computer is unfiltered.

My general concern about = stand-alone products is that you have to have a procedure for keeping the database = updated, you can’t add a site to a single white list, and anything you do = you have to do multiple times.

Experience tells me that you want a = filter that works either by category or specific URL. Keyword filtering really = doesn’t work very well and may turn out to be more trouble than it is = worth.

Also remember that this is a top = down process. You are filtering to enforce a Board policy, so be sure that = the filter you chose complies with that policy…not just sex, but chat = or instant messaging or whatever.

I know that this is simplistic, but = just for grins take a modified version of the Dr. Laura or Family friendly = Libraries (they have a new name which escapes me). Do a Google = search on your favorite dirty word, then follow the links until you have = violated the Board’s policy. You don’t get points for being personally = offended by images of naked sheep on the young adult = computer.

The Koha folk from Nelsonville have developed an open source filtering product that = might also be worth checking out.

BTW: This request was for product information not philosophical discussion. If you want to debate = filtering please open a new topic.
