New Frontiers in Fisheries Management and Ecology:
Leading the Way in a Changing World
I am pleased to extend a heartfelt, personal welcome to all attending the 141st Annual Meeting of the American Fisheries Society. It was 58 years ago in 1954 when the Society last met in Seattle and that is way too long. The Pacific Northwest offers a beautiful setting with tremendous opportunities for touring, sightseeing, and many fishing opportunities. The City of Seattle is extremely attractive and the people are quite friendly. The Seattle Convention Center is a large, modern facility that can easily accommodate the record number of attendees, probably the largest number ever to attend an AFS meeting. What a place to spend a few days, learn the latest developments in our profession, do the business of our Society, and have a good time!
This is an adventure novella written by Sheikh Sameen Nawaar Anindya a boy of 9. This is the first part of the 3 part series book where Edward, Daniel and Robin makes atrip to the Loch ness River to explore the river monster Nessi, but becomes prey of a gang looking for treasures.

Library Reflection
On Thursday, July 19, 2012, a bunch of stuffed animals came to storytime at the Park Hill Branch Library to hear some stories and sing some songs. We had great fun and our kids did too. Then our children left and we stayed the day and night to learn more about how the library works. Check out what we learned!
School’s out for summer, as you’ve probably noticed because of the recent influx of tots and teens participating in your story hours and book clubs. Public librarians with experience in youth outreach will spend this hour sharing what has worked and what has not when it comes to reaching this patron population at their libraries. Bring your own best practices to share with the group as well.

When we started at the South Sioux City Public Library two years ago the library was having difficult times. Circulation and attendance numbers were down. The public’s opinion of the library was not positive. In two years’ time period we have seen an increase of circulation from 21000 items to over 40000 items. We have seen attendance numbers for youth climb from 2000 to 6000 and adult attendance has gone from 800 participants to over 3000 participants. This presentation will tell what we did to turn the program around. Presenters: David Mixdorf, Dan Nieman, Odessa Meyer, South Sioux City Public Library.

2. Well, hello there! Would you like to take a little trip on a bookmobile? My name is Lucy, and I’ll be your guide as we travel in Kootenai County, Idaho delivering library services with the Community Library Network’s Bookmobile. Video may take a minute to load Debra Johnson is our driver. Don’t worry, she’s has her Commercial Driver’s License and has been driving this bus for six years. Are you ready? Then fasten your seatbelts and get ready for a bouncy ride!
3. Outreach Services Staff While we travel to our first destination, let’s take a moment to meet the staff. Connie Nemeck Karin Hall TwyllaRehder, Outreach Services Coordinator There are five staff in the Bookmobile Outreach Services department working a cumulative total of 136 hours per week. Unless there is a special event that requires additional help, such as the Kootenai County Fair, each staff person does their own route individually. [Laurie Moore is not pictured] Debra Johnson (She’s pointing at the emergency escape hatch . . . just in case)
4. Idaho So where are we going? Kootenai & Shoshone Counties Kootenai County (Kootenai County Idaho, n.d.). Today is the 1st Monday of the month, so as you can see from the schedule, we are headed to Social Residential. Next we’ll head to the Montrose Apartments, a retirement housing development. Debra will continue on to the School Plus location in the afternoon. (Community Library Network, 2011). The Bookmobile visits up to 24 sites every month in Kootenai and Shoshone Counties. While some locations may take less than an hour of travel time, outlying destinations often require the whole day.
5. But that’s not all, there is also a Sprinter Van with its own “lobby stop” schedule. The Sprinter Van goes to 23 different locations each month. The quote on the flyer says: “Bringing the library van to senior citizens at independent and assisted living facilities across Kootenai County” (Community Library Network, 2011). (Community Library Network, 2011). BOOKIT Connie is heading out to do just that.
9. World Cat This is what it looked like when we headed out. Oops! While navigating a tight corner the books when flying. Playaways
10. Let’s see what else is inside . . . funny dog camera & screen for backing up port-a-potty air conditioner and heater and big clock outside door lock extra seat main entrance side door back door
11. Here we are at Social Residential ( a behavioral health residence for adolescents) our first stop of the day. Debra finds a place to park. I quickly help her to reshelve the items that fell off. Afterwards we go inside to let them know we are here and then come back and wait. Two teens choose a few young adult books. After they are approved by the their counselor, Debra checks them out and we head to our next destination.
12. We’ve just arrived at the Montrose Apartments. Debra makes a call to Hayden Library to ask about a technology problem. They use MiFi for their wireless Internet connection and a laptop to check out items. Debra tells me that the signal strength is somewhat sporadicbut it works well enough. After checking out books and delivering bags of items that had been placed on hold, we head back to the library.
13. Now we’re going to take a little detour. We’re skipping ahead to the following the week so I can share some pictures from my outreach program at Skyway Elementary. Arriving at Skyway Elementary See the rabbit on my shoulder? He’s waiting to see if the kids can answer the riddle “how do you catch a unique rabbit?” That’s me on the left (in blue) and my assistant Morgan Chevalley. Morgan came with me so Karin and Connie could see how to do the skit. They will be helping me next week. “Unique up on him!”
14. Here are some of the creative ideas that the kids came up with for their puppet theaters. (‘The zombie and the girl’ is my favorite) One of the site coordinators went into the Bookmobile to check out a pile of books for the kids. Usually they take the kids in a few at a time, but they wanted them to have time to work on their crafts.
15. Ok, now let’s bounce back to last week and see how Debra manages to park to this thing! I know we came out there but . . . Automatic garage door opener Driving to the back of the library Sheesh! That is one tight fit. Look how close the mirror is to the wall! How’re we going to fit back in?
16. Although the Bookmobile resides in tight quarters, the staff’s office space is quite roomy. The green labels help to keep books and other items organized and ready to grab for their next trip. These donation books are heading to foodbanks throughout Kootenai County.
17. Well folks, we’ve come to the end of the of the road. I hope you enjoyed your tour of the Bookmobile. Thank you for joining me and please watch your step on the way out.
