Beware the Zombie Hoardes: Or, Know your escape plan.....

 One of my colleagues shared this great bib guide today from McPherson College Library: Library of the Living Dead: Your guide to Miller Library at McPherson College  It's a well done introduction to library orientation using a zombie attack story to get the reader engaged in the physical location of materials in the library. I'm a firm believer in bringing information to your community in their own language. This serves that purpose and helps to affirm value for libraries to a pop-culture generation.

I'm in the midst of an environmental scan for in-kind gifts policies. At risk of sounding ageist, I would love to see a graphical articulation of our own gift-in-kind acceptance policy. I think we're a long way off from this at present. Certainly I have the resources in small press / independent writers and publishers via connections with my spouse. Perhaps I can distill the information at a later date and share it graphically.
