Here is a link to the PowerPoint I created on basic book repair techniques that can be done with a minimum of tools/equipment. I need to revise the slides, but until I do so, in answer to some questions I've received: PVA is Polyvinyl Acetate, AKA book-repair glue. While Elmer's is technically a PVA, it is not recommended for book repair due to higher water content and acidity level. [|Book Repair PowerPoint] --Ronda Y. Foust

This is a PowerPoint presentation that I created and used during my concurrent session at the 2007 CSLA Annual Conference: [|Getting "Lucky" With LM_NET: Tapping the Power of LM_NET and Listservers.] I use the PowerPoint to tell the story of the "Power of Lucky" brouhaha that ensued from an LM_NET Target/Hit in February 2007, and which captivated the attention of the national media, in order to demonstrate how powerful of an effect a few postings on LM_NET had, and then include tips for effective use of //LM_NET//, the //LM_NET Archives//, as well as [|EL-Announce With LM_NET Select].

This is a PowerPoint presenatation that I used during a staff development on How to Use the OPAC. The presentation is based on Follett's Circulation Plus System. I printed out the PowerPoint as a handout (3 slides to a page) for my staff. The "notes" document contains 2 sections that I cut & paste (the old-fashioned way) onto the handout next to slides 2 & 21. This information was compiled thanks to resources shared by the individuals listed on the last slide. Please feel free to modify the presentation as needed to meet the needs of your school while being respectful of their efforts and mine.
