New Library Building committee on the road
Frank Penn and Peter Hovell, members of the Darien Library New Building Committee travel to Princeton New Jersey to visit the new Princeton Public Library. It was a worthwhile road trip to see a new library serving a community similar in size to Darien with many of the internal features that we are considering for the new Darien Library.

Dewey Darien the Library Heron
Who named the library heron? We did! DeweyDarien is now our screen name for IM (instant message) reference. And he's just waiting for your questions... so fire away! We have other ideas for using DeweyDarien as the library mascot..... and would love to hear yours.

P & Z
What do Bob Harrel, Enid Oresman, Brian Peoples, Mary Bennett, Parker Buckles and Jeff Annecchino have in common? They were all in the audience at the P & Z hearing last week. An enthusiastic crowd of 30 friends, staff and trustees supported Bruce Hill's presentation for the New Darien Library. Thank you to everyone who attended! Bruce would like you to come to all his presentations.....

Road Show
Michael and Jenny gave me the push I needed. Darien Library staff were joined by librarians from all over the state to hear Jenny Levine and Michael Stephens discuss Web 2.0 and easy new ways to make our library even MORE customer friendly, with new technologies. Judy has details and photos on the Info Tech blog. I was inspired to open a Flickr account, aggregate my favorite web sites with RSS feeds and at long last, start the Directors BLOG.
