<a href="http://www.blogger.com/null" name="h.gjdgxs"></a><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">On Friday, May 10th, in an article
about the proposed 2013 Caldwell Borough Budget, Paul Carelli, Borough
Administrator, was quoted as stating that the Caldwell Library budget has been
increased by 30%. Although this is technically true, it requires more explanation.
The 30 percent increase attributed to the Caldwell Public Library budget
is in fact a reflection of bookkeeping changes by the borough across all
departments. </span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">Included
in this 30% are the state mandated pension and benefits that were previously
paid directly by the Borough, which are now to be reallocated to the
Library's total budget. In actuality, if one were to remove this new line
reallocation, our operating budget is flat, and cuts have been made in the
areas of insurance, utilities and supplies to partially compensate for the
added burden to our budget.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">The
State of NJ mandates how much money must be collected to support library
services. That amount has fallen every year for the past four years. For the
2012 budget, the state mandated that the Borough collect $359,559, but for 2013
our allocation is only $342,890. Additional revenue is provided by the Borough
in order to keep our doors open. We have worked closely with the Finance
Committee to keep operating expenses at a minimum while continuing to offer our
patrons quality service. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The Caldwell Library Foundation is
instrumental in supplementing the money allocated by the Borough. The money
raised from efforts like the Mayors' Gala are an important contribution that
supplements the Library's budget.</span></div>

Caldwell for their continued support.</span></div>

Museum houses one of the
most extensive and oldest collections of African art in the nation and is one
of the only museums in the country with a gallery devoted to a permanent
collection of contemporary African art.
A major, expansion, designed to provide a stunning backdrop for the more
than 5,000 objects, will be completed in 2015, the centennial of the
collection’s founding. The African Art
presentation explores how beauty, humanity, power and spirituality are
interpreted artistically across the different cultures of the African
continent. Spectacular examples of this

<br />
2012 was a difficult year for so many, and the Caldwell Free Public Library had its share of ups and downs. Like our Jersey Strong patrons, we stayed on top of things and persevered with your help.<br />
<br />
We started off the year with the news that our state budget had been cut once again, for the 4th year in a row. Our hours were slightly decreased, we didn't buy as many materials, but we still made sure to be there for you, our patrons.<br />
<br />
Due to the generosity and community spirit of our residents, we were able to continue our mission. This year saw us expand our Summer Reading Program and we added additional Teen programming. Our monthly Pizza and a Movie Night became a hit, and our Summer Concert Series drew record crowds. We offered lectures, author visits, and hobby classes, and we started a new Brown Bag Book Club. When the hurricane hit our area, we provided warmth, charging stations and internet access, as well as a family movie.<br />
<br />
We were touched and grateful when our Mayor, Ann Dassing, joined forces with the Caldwell Public Library Foundation and former Mayor Sue Gartland to present the Mayors' Legacy for Literacy. The Gala raised close to $32,000 which will help provide equipment and programming for our patrons. <br />
<br />
We have tried, in our own way, to give back where possible. Our charitable contribution for the year included Food for Fines, where we waived fines if people made a non-perishable donation to the food pantry; Cell Phones for Soldiers, where we collected old cell phones for recycling. The money generated by those recycled phones is used for service members overseas to call home. We joined other NJ Libraries in collecting Books for Kids, where new books are distributed to children in need, and we collected books for Caldwell College's Guatemala Project. We also ended the year by helping to replenish the collections in libraries which were flooded during Hurricane Sandy.<br />
<br />
We thank all of you for your continued support and we hope that you'll enjoy the wide array of programs that we will have in place this year. Remember, we are here for you!<br />

<br />The Caldwell Public Libraryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01323538908391146127noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5352415201979409688.post-2304521829292113982012-12-11T07:39:00.000-08:002012-12-11T07:39:43.856-08:00In the Aftermath of Sandy<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"></span><br />
I've been Director of the Caldwell Public Library for a little over a year now, and I've bookended that year with storms. I remember coming to interview right after Hurricane Irene, and was unable to make the first meeting due to blocked roads. Then, right after I started, we were hit with the October 29, 2011 Nor'easter. That snowstorm knocked down many trees and power lines, and I was gratified by the staff's response.<br />
<br />
Exactly a year later, Hurricane Sandy hit on October 29, 2012. The
staff and I were relieved to find that the
library had escaped harm. While most
homes and businesses were without power, the Library’s electricity and
computer functionality remained operational, allowing them to serve the
community.<br />
<br />
For the second year in a row, the Library opened on Halloween and
hosted members of the storm-ravaged community. Patrons filed into the
library with laptops and cell phones, ready to charge their electronics
and use the Wifi. Some patrons came to warm up, others to entertain
their children. Many picked up books and read, waiting for electricity
to be returned to their homes. Everyone was treated to some Halloween
candy.<br />
<br />
The library was definitely much busier than usual.Since none of the other area libraries were
open, people relied on us, and we were glad that we were able to help.
Staff members came in early, stayed late, brought power strips from
home, and did everything possible to make sure that everyone was
accommodated. <br />
<br />
Library Assistant & Programming Coordinator Frances Larkey loved
the shared sense of community. “Patrons were courteous and showed their
appreciation. They understood the long waits for computer
time, and the feeling of community was strong." <span></span>Library
Assistant Pattie Mathieson said “we had limited computers and outlets,
and it was great that people worked with us. It was warm in spirit as
well as temperature, and people kept their sense of humor.”<br />
<br />
By 3:00 PM on Halloween, over 97 people had logged into the library’s wifi. The next day saw over 200 users.<span> </span>While
the Caldwell Public Library is small, our doors remained open for the
public. Children needed something to stay entertained, so Children’s
Librarian Deborah Khost quickly advertised an impromptu showing of
Disney’s <em>Haunted Mansion</em> in the Children’s Room. The movie idea
went over so well that the next night the Library partnered with the
Methodist Church and showed <em>Cars II</em> in their auditorium. The
Methodist Church was open for community members who needed to get out of
the cold, and by having the movie there, the library was able to offer
more space to computer users who needed to access their wifi.<br />
<br />
The Library’s Board of Trustees came to the rescue as well.<span> </span>Many
of them came in to volunteer, and helped with shelving, finding books
for patrons, and they brought much-needed power strips. On Saturday,
November 3, Library hours were extended until 5:00PM, although normal
closing is at noon. The board members who volunteered allowed the
library to remain open with limited staffing.<br />
<br />
You don’t realize how many items are consumed when the crowd is
larger than usual. We went through cups for
water, toilet paper, and our wifi nearly stalled because of the number
of simultaneous users. What was great, though, was the number of people
who obtained a new card. People were able to log in and contact friends,
relatives, and insurance companies.<span> </span>They were able to get news on the situation and report their outages to PSE&G.<br />
<br />
A week later we were hit with the second Nor'easter, and that snowstorm managed to do what Sandy couldn't: it knocked out our computer network. While we were still open and had power, we didn't have any computer availability. Staff looked up patron requests on smart phones, and in order to prevent too much of a backlog we trucked boxes of returns over to the Cedar Grove and Wayne Public Libraries so that we could check them in on their system. <br />
<br />
I continue to be thankful for the generosity of our community. Even during all of this, people donated cell phones to the Cell Phones for Soldiers program, and brought in canned good for the Food for Fines program which benefits the Caldwell Food Pantry. Some patrons made donations to the Caldwell Public Library Foundation, and others showed their support by attending the Mayors' Legacy for Literacy Gala.<br />
<br />
It has been a very good year here at the Caldwell Public Library. I am proud to be part of this community, and I am thankful for the opportunity to work with such great people. You won't find better people than the staff of the Caldwell Public Library, and I am honored to work with them. - Adele<br />

The Freedom to Read means that you are free to read whatever you like. Taking away someone else's freedom by trying to ban a book makes no sense. If you object, don't read it, but don't take away something that someone else may need or enjoy. We are the most diverse nation on earth, and as such we should respect each other and our differences. Saying someone can't read a book because you object to the content is like saying someone else can't have a slice of cake because you're on a diet.<br />

Did you know that one of the most banned children's books is <i>In the Night Kitchen</i> by Maurice Sendak? It's because Max is nude. The <i>Harry Potter</i> series comes under attack all the time because not everyone supports the idea of witches and wizards, even if they are fictional. There are lists of <a href="http://www.library.illinois.edu/edx/s-coll/challengedbooks/picture.htm">banned picture books</a> and I just don't understand it. <i>Where's Waldo</i>??? Really?<br />
<br />
It amazes me that we have to have a 30th anniversary for Banned Books Week. As someone who believes in intellectual freedom, I'm sad to say that it seems like things are getting worse. We have television personalities who wish to ban items because it doesn't fit their societal viewpoint, and they get their viewers, many of whom would ignore the school/library/bookstore under any other circumstances, to issue challenges. How can someone even begin to challenge something they haven't even read?<br />
<br />
We are Americans. We fight for freedom, for justice and for truth. Don't deny anyone their freedom just because you don't agree with their choice of reading material. That is unAmerican!<br />

<br />
The following press release is from the American Library Association. I
think it's important that people see what is being challenged each year:<br />
<br />
CHICAGO - What would you do if you went to
the library to check out a book, only to find it wasn’t there? Not
because it was already checked out, but because someone else didn’t
agree with its content and had it removed. According to the American
Library Association’s (<span class="caps">ALA</span>) Office for Intellectual Freedom (<span class="caps">OIF</span>),
there were 326 reported attempts to remove materials from libraries in
2011, making this situation all too familiar in some communities across
the <span class="caps">U.S.</span><br />
<br />
From Sept.30 – Oct. 6, libraries, schools and bookstores from coast to
coast will battle censorship and celebrate the freedom to read during <a href="http://www.ala.org/advocacy/banned/bannedbooksweek">Banned Books Week</a>,
an annual event highlighting the importance of the First Amendment.
Thousands will read from banned or challenged books, speak out and learn
about censorship as the nation celebrates the right to choose reading
materials without restriction.<br />
<br />
<span class="dquo">“</span>During Banned Books Week, we hope to remind
Americans that the ability to read, speak, think and express ourselves
freely is a right, not a privilege,” said Maureen Sullivan, <span class="caps">ALA</span>
President. “As we celebrate the 30th anniversary of Banned Books Week,
it’s important to recognize that book banning does exist in this day and
age. It’s up to all of us, community residents, librarians, teachers
and journalists, to continue to stand up and speak out for the right to
read.”<br />
<br />
In one case, the Plymouth-Canton school district in Michigan considered
banning both Toni Morrison’s <i>Beloved</i> and Graham Swift’s <i>Waterland</i>
after complaints from some parents of objectionable content. Both books
were eventually allowed to stay on school shelves after a review
committee heard from teachers, students and parents in support of the
books during public meetings. But, unfortunately, even with the help of
outspoken supporters, books are still being removed.<br />
In Illinois, the Erie School Board recently upheld its 2010 decision to
ban <i>The Family Book</i> by Todd Parr and its accompanying materials from
an elementary school over its <span class="caps">LGBT</span> theme. The
book was introduced as part of the <i>Ready, Set, Respect!</i> lesson plan
endorsed by the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (<span class="caps">GLSEN</span>)
as part of a diversity and tolerance unit in the school. And in the
Annville-Cleona School District in Pennsylvania, the award-winning
children’s book <i>The Dirty Cowboy</i>, written by Amy Timberlake and
illustrated by Adam Rex, was removed from elementary schools because of
its illustrative content involving a cartoon cowboy taking his annual
bath.<br />
<br />
This year marks the 30th anniversary of Banned Books Week and thousands
will celebrate by participating in special events and exhibits to learn
about the power of literature and the harms of censorship. To
commemorate this milestone anniversary, the <span class="caps">ALA</span> Office for Intellectual Freedom is coordinating the “<a href="http://www.ala.org/advocacy/banned/bannedbooksweek/calendarofevents/50statesalute">50 State Salute to Banned Books Week</a>,” featuring videos from each state proclaiming the importance of the freedom to read. And for the second year in a row, the <span class="caps">ALA</span> along with the co-sponsors of Banned Books Week, will host a <a href="http://www.ala.org/advocacy/banned/bannedbooksweek/calendarofevents/banned-books-virtual-read-out">Virtual Read Out</a> on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/bannedbooksweek">YouTube</a> where
participants will be able to proclaim the virtues of their favorite
banned books to the world. Past participants have included highly
acclaimed and/or frequently challenged authors such as Jay Asher, Judy
Blume, Chris Crutcher, Whoopi Goldberg, Lauren Myracle and many more.<br />
<br />
Restricting student access to books in schools is nothing new, but in
the age of the Internet, legitimate, educational websites and
academically useful social networking tools in schools and school
libraries are being overly restricted and filtered more than ever. In an
effort to raise awareness, the <span class="caps">ALA</span>’s American Association of School Libraries (<span class="caps">AASL</span>),
has designated one day during Banned Books Week as Banned Websites
Awareness Day – Wednesday, Oct. 3– and is asking school librarians and
other educators to promote an awareness of how overly restrictive
filtering affects student learning.<br />
<br />
Also, many bookstores, schools and libraries celebrating Banned Books Week will showcase selections from the <span class="caps">ALA</span> <span class="caps">OIF</span>’s
Top Ten Most Frequently Challenged Books of 2011. The list is released
each spring and provides a snapshot of book removal attempts in the <span class="caps">U.S.</span> The Top Ten Most Frequently Challenged Books of 2011 reflects a range of themes and consists of the following titles:<br />

It's that time of year when the kids head back to school, the weather turns crisp and clear, and our thoughts turn away from Summer Reading.<br /><br />We had a very successful Summer Reading Program thanks to the wonderful efforts of Mrs. Deborah Khost, who put together a slate of great activities for children, and Mrs. Fran Larkey, who spearheaded all the adult programming. Our first ever Summer Concert Series was a delight.<br /><br />We kick off September with a Library Card Sign-Up Month. Come in during September to get a new card and you'll be ready for the rest of the school year! What can you do with your card? We all know you can borrow books, but you can also borrow DVDs, audio books, and e-books. You can use your card throughout most of New Jersey thanks to reciprocal borrowing, and you can order books to be sent here for you via Interlibrary Loan. Your card gives you access to our public computers so that you can keep in touch with friends and family, search for a job, do some online research and obtain a voter registration application. Come in and get your card today!<br /><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;">National Hispanic Heritage Month September 15 - October 15<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiha98I2kSU3G6MgYfkWsmGGmBagWfGEO-BEMHltxy5hV4dQ4mbRtzNUbsRQgvV3nfl5LKSHlgRglEdLJjxxkbFDbsjPVVLjh-N1FxaG72209XX7UamwvipPQXLrCUqhgYS1uQExIbhRgs/s1600/Heritage.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 275px; height: 262px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiha98I2kSU3G6MgYfkWsmGGmBagWfGEO-BEMHltxy5hV4dQ4mbRtzNUbsRQgvV3nfl5LKSHlgRglEdLJjxxkbFDbsjPVVLjh-N1FxaG72209XX7UamwvipPQXLrCUqhgYS1uQExIbhRgs/s320/Heritage.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5787695124634332354" border="0" /></a><br /><br /></span></div><p>Each year, Americans observe National Hispanic Heritage Month from September 15 to October 15, by celebrating the histories, cultures and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America.</p> <p>The observation started in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage Week under President Lyndon Johnson and was expanded by President Ronald Reagan in 1988 to cover a 30-day period starting on September 15 and ending on October 15. It was enacted into law on August 17, 1988, on the approval of Public Law 100-402.</p> <p>The day of September 15 is significant because it is the anniversary of independence for Latin American countries Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. In addition, Mexico and Chile celebrate their independence days on September 16 and September18, respectively. Also, Columbus Day or Día de la Raza, which is October 12, falls within this 30 day period.</p><p>Come in and Celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month with a good book! </p> <p>Dominican turned New Jerseyan author Junot Díaz will be out with a new work this month entitled <em>This is How You Lose Her</em>, a collection of short stories that examine the “haunting, impossible power of love” from the Dominican Republic to New Jersey and Boston.

Local residents filled the Caldwell Public Library last night to honor nature photographer Janet Markman, whose work is on exhibit in the Library during the month of June. <i>New Jersey’s Angels:
With & Without Wings</i> is her latest collection of stunning photographs.Mrs. Markman is the official photographer for the Borough of Caldwell, but her passion is her nature photography.<br />
<br />
<span class="paragraph-1">Though raised in New York City,
Markman has been a resident of Caldwell for more than 17 years. She
says she has always been fascinated with nature, and relatively recently
realized her true creative passion: observing and photographing birds.
Since then, her art has expanded to include other flying creatures,
notably butterflies and moths, as well as trees, flowers, landscapes and
other animals.<br />
</span>
<br />
We like to say that the Caldwell Library is the heart of our town, but that heart can't beat without the participation of our patrons. We appreciate the generous spirit of people like Mrs. Markman, who give their time and talents to the Library, so that we can continue to bring people quality exhibits and programming.It was truly gratifying to see the number of people who turned out for this event: area residents, Mayor Dassing and our council members, local businesspeople, and many others who came to show their appreciation for Mrs. Markman and our Library. Mr. & Mrs. Markman are known for their philanthropic spirit and their support of many local causes.<br />
<br />
Please stop by this month, take a look at this beautiful exhibit, and plan to return for some of our upcoming summer programs. When you stop by, make sure to sign Mrs. Markman's guest book.<br />

<br />The Caldwell Public Libraryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01323538908391146127noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5352415201979409688.post-30397014482814505142012-06-11T07:53:00.003-07:002012-06-11T07:53:20.545-07:00Book ExpoEvery year the publishing industry sponsors Book Expo America at the Javits Center in NYC. The show started out as a way for book sellers to connect with the publishing industry, but publishers soon realized that networking with librarians was a great way to get their information out to the public.<br />
<br />
Book Expo is the largest annual book trade fair in the United States. In the past, it's been held in Los Angeles, Chicago and Washington, DC, but has found a permanent home in NYC. The publishing industry wants librarians to attend Book Expo, not just to sell us books, but to help us disseminate current information and future trends to our patrons. In this year's Day of Dialog, both Library Journal and School Library Journal provided librarian attendees with workshops designed to provide continuing education credits.<br />
<br />
Librarians were able to participate in topics on ebooks, upcoming book buzz, author breakfasts, and collection development. Of course, all conference attendees are able to meet and greet various authors who are on hand to autograph their books. This year a number of authors signed books for the Caldwell Public Library, including: Kate Workman (<i>The Mom 100 Cookbook</i>), Kate Hopper (<i>Use Your Words: A Writing Guide for Mothers</i>), Lisa Morrone (<i>Sleep Well Again</i>), Carmine Gallo (<i>The Apple Experience</i>), and Terry Baker Mulligan (<i>Sugar Hill - Where the Sun Rose Over Harlem</i>). The Children's Room received a copy of <i>It's a Big World, Little Pig</i>! signed by Kristi Yamaguchi. Young Adult authors Rachel Vincent and Michael Dahl also signed copies of their books for our patrons. Robin Roberts signed an audio book copy of <i>My Story, My Song</i>, the book written with her Mother, Lucimarian Roberts.<br />
<br />
One theme came up time and again when talking with the authors I met: all of them had fond memories of the local public libraries. As soon as I asked them to sign the books to the Caldwell Public Library, they would light up and speak about what it was like to go to the library when they were a child, or tell a story about how a reference librarian helped them with research.<br />
<br />
It's great to know that the publishing industry is supportive of a continued dialog with librarians, and I am looking forward to providing our patrons with a wide variety of new materials and ideas.<br />

Caldwell LIVE, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Lifelong Involvement
for Vital Elders</i>,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>was designed to
create an elder-friendly community where older residents can age in place with
social supports, access to services, and meaningful activities that promote
civic engagement, encourage independence, and help people stay safe and active
in their own homes. With that goal in mind, Caldwell LIVE launched in the fall
of 2008 to serve the borough’s nearly 1,000 residents over the age of 65. Caldwell,
where 40 percent of the town’s 3,300 households included a resident 55 or older
when the program began, offers easy walkability, a wide range of public and
private services, and public transportation for seniors.<br />
The program began as a federally funded NORC (Naturally Occurring Retirement
Community) project modeled on the earlier successful Parsippany LIVE program.
Both were implemented by UJC MetroWest. Support is provided by the US
Administration on Aging and United Jewish Appeal and funded in part through a
grant from the Mountainside Health Foundation.<br />
<br />
Many different public, civic, and faith-based groups were invited to join in
this collaborative project. The Caldwell roster includes: United Jewish
Communities of MetroWest; Mountainside Hospital; JCC of MetroWest; Crane’s
Mills CCRC; NJ TIP Travel Training; Jewish Family Service; Jewish Vocational
Service; Metro Transport – Daughters of Israel; Caldwell Public Library;
Caldwell Human Services; Essex County Division on Aging; Kiwanis Club; Rotary
Club; Caldwell College; DOROT; Congregation Agudath Israel; First Presbyterian
Church of Caldwell; St. Aloysius Catholic Church; St. Peter’s Episcopal Church;
& the United Methodist Church.<br />
<br />
The Caldwell Free Public Library was an obvious choice for participation.
The Library is centrally located on Bloomfield Avenue, is easily reached via
public transportation, and is right near the Caldwell Community Center. The
Caldwell Live Coordinators, Karen Alexander, UJC MetroWest’s Director of
Eldercare Services and Roberta Schoenberg, an expert on the elderly at Jewish
Family Service of MetroWest, contacted Library Director Karen Kleppe-Lembo, who
attended the presentation with Library Assistant Frances Larkey. Already in
charge of adult programming, Larkey was a natural choice to spearhead the
Library’s involvement with Caldwell LIVE. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Mrs. Larkey is a Caldwell resident with a BA
in Art and a BN in Psychiatric Nursing. She has many connections within the
town and had been looking for ways to involve seniors in Library programs.<br />
<br />
So what does the Library have to offer to Caldwell LIVE and what has
Caldwell LIVE given to the Library?<br />
<br />

a way to bring the Library to a senior residence where residents might not be
able to attend an in-library event. </div>
<div style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-indent: -0.25in;">
<br /></div>
Some of the challenges presented to the Library were time management, staff
allotment, competing priorities, and space. Our facilities aren’t large, but
when a program is scheduled, we rearrange furniture and provide seating for 30+
patrons. With our dwindling budget (we are the lowest-funded library in Essex
County) we saw a slight decrease in hours during the last year. Retiring staff
members haven’t been replaced, putting a strain on coverage during programs and
outreach. We always have to consider the needs of the community as a whole while
ministering to a specific population group. When we present a program in the
reading room, the room isn’t accessible to the rest of the community. If we
schedule 4 senior-based programs a month, will we have the staff to cover other
areas? Will we be able to run children’s programs concurrently? So far Mrs.
Larkey has been able to do all this and more with the help of some very
dedicated staff members and community partners.<br />
<br />
We, as an institution, have received some positive benefits from our continued
participation in Caldwell Live. The Caldwell Public Library’s visibility has
been enhanced, and we are seen as a community player, always willing to enter
into collaborative partnerships. Our staff members have learned of many
opportunities for seniors which we then disseminate to the public. We feel that
seniors have been able to connect with the library in positive ways, and we’ve
received targeted staff development training. Feedback from the public has been
very positive, and we feel that this has contributed to our budget remaining
stable for FY 2012.<br />
<br />
During the past four years, the program has worked to provide a wide range
of community services for older adults, including Feel Good Friday health and
wellness classes and talks at the Caldwell Library, participation in Caldwell
College’s Lifelong Learning Institute, social work support, transportation
assistance, home safety assessments, volunteer opportunities and spiritual
caring programs. Each month the Caldwell LIVE calendar listing a variety of programs
is mailed to older adults in the community, and is distributed through partner
organizations. In addition to the programs offered by the library, the calendar
includes health and educational programs including Move Today, a gentle
exercise class; Caldwell College Lifelong Learning lectures; and Workshops on
Using Public Transportation<br /><br />
In December, 2011, the program’s federal funding came to a close, but the
program has already proven to be a sustainable model. The Caldwell LIVE
calendar is still created by the borough’s Dept. of Human Services. The Caldwell
Public Library continues to host the <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Feel Good Friday health education programs
with Mountainside Hospital, and will continue to develop more senior-friendly
and intergenerational programming. We currently have a year’s worth of Feel
Good Fridays on the calendar, and other programs include Lunch and Learn, Pizza
and A Movie, and we are in talks to host another book club for seniors at the
Caldwell Senior Center. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Students from
Caldwell College have donated their time to teach seniors how to use the
computer.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We also host the Caldwell Live
partner meetings, where participants can come together and brainstorm joint
offerings for the future.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Congregation
Agudath Israel has continued to host the Wednesday Walking Club with a JCC of
MetroWest volunteer coordinator. In addition, the West Essex Ministerial
Association has continued the efforts of the Spiritual Caring Committee and
partner agencies will still make and accept referrals for services from Caldwell
residents. Caldwell LIVE partners continue to offer a variety of services
including social work counseling, home maintenance, employment assistance and
limited non-emergency medical transportation. Monetary donations have come from
the Mountainside Health Foundation, the Kiwanis Club and the Rotary Club.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Sadly, federal earmarks for future NORC
projects have been canceled.<br />
<br />
Karen Alexander, director of eldercare services for Jewish Family Service of
MetroWest, created the Caldwell LIVE model. Alexander explained that the aging
in place program started in 2004 in Parsippany with a federal grant. The
program expanded to Caldwell and Verona when additional funding was acquired
through a federal earmark thanks to U.S. Rep. Rodney Frelinghuysen (R-11th Dist.).<br />
<br />
Caldwell was chosen because there was a strong sense of community, the right
demographics and it was well-served by public transit, among other reasons,
Alexander said. She said the program has been used as a model at the American
Society on Aging’s National Conference.<br />
<br />
But the numbers speak for themselves. A survey of Caldwell LIVE participants
revealed that 65% of survey respondents felt more confident in their ability to
age in place, 87% said they were more knowledgeable of community resources and
87% said they have new friends.<br />
<br />
It is our hope that all residents of Caldwell will make use of our library, but we're especially grateful that as people age and stay in place, we can continue to serve their needs. For more information please call the Library at 973-226-2837. <br />

Libraries help level the playing field by making both print and digital information affordable, available and accessible to all people. This includes job seeking resources, materials in a variety of print and electronic formats, cultural heritage and genealogical collections, English as second language and citizenship classes and many other resourceful and creative programs.<br /><br />Today diversity applies to more than different races and ethnicities, but varying physical disabilities, sexual orientations, ages, languages and social classes. Libraries and librarians throughout the country are working to design their collections and services to meet the diverse needs and interests of their communities.<br /><br />Here are just a few of the things you can do this week at the Caldwell Public Library:<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">For All:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Food for Fines</span> - Bring in a non-perishable food item (canned or boxed) for the Caldwell Food Pantry and we'll waive your fines.

I'm proud to say that we have a great relationship with our area schools, and we're always looking for ways to assist them in their educational endeavors.<br /><br />On March 21st we had the honor of hosting students from Washington Elementary School and James Caldwell High School's English and Computer Graphics Classes at a Reception to celebrate their Art in Education Grant. The day began with a morning reception before the library's regular operating hours, where the elementary school students were honored for their contributions, and were treated to a story time featuring the books written by the students. In the evening, the library hosted a reception for the public, where students, their families and teachers, could show the art work to the community. This worthwhile grant produced some top-notch art and literature. Everyone should be proud of these amazing students who were able to collaborate so beautifully on this project.<br /><br />The Art in Education (AIE) grant involves building upon a mentoring program instituted by Special Education teacher , Robin Keil. Students in Mrs. Keil's 10th grade English class have been mentors to the Washington Elementary students. The grant has given the students of James Caldwell High School's Computer Graphics class an opportunity to help progress this mentorship through a professional illustration experience.<br /><br />Thanks to the AIE grant, the illustrators as well as the writers had the opportunity to work with professional artist and book creator, Irene Kelly. The results of this collaboration will be on display during in the Caldwell Public Library during the month of March. We look forward to hosting more school-library partnership events in the future. Stop by in April to see Colonial Dioramas created by the students of Lincoln School.<br /><br /><br /><br />Check out some of the spectacular work created by these students involved in the AIE grant:<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLfyAoUqqSU3I1_tzyzN-7UX8aZtE04ws5g43XNXETquIisalybIZw1iC5Gqnr7CaOs3Buweu9WBlIK5-4X4g4jQAd-Xfx-JwqGmJi3SIujavWWGT8Asbskq49C99UKV4cfXw-hl1RTs0/s1600/JCHS+Art+007.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLfyAoUqqSU3I1_tzyzN-7UX8aZtE04ws5g43XNXETquIisalybIZw1iC5Gqnr7CaOs3Buweu9WBlIK5-4X4g4jQAd-Xfx-JwqGmJi3SIujavWWGT8Asbskq49C99UKV4cfXw-hl1RTs0/s200/JCHS+Art+007.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724229050756863042" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNGXJn-EXWBV8PKydDgzW5In6erGUU0oXuWzx0598K07TenKhdRzDSBbdfBnTOUHwmJGddtyTjFFLxqqRyETgXy7GexwoObsW5A2pzW9T_3bDaVL6GBvriEeLW0lp4kCsOshgz8Lp_-lw/s1600/JCHS+Art+005.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNGXJn-EXWBV8PKydDgzW5In6erGUU0oXuWzx0598K07TenKhdRzDSBbdfBnTOUHwmJGddtyTjFFLxqqRyETgXy7GexwoObsW5A2pzW9T_3bDaVL6GBvriEeLW0lp4kCsOshgz8Lp_-lw/s200/JCHS+Art+005.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724228965996656914" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNgqLIZqsLVxi5MujPdGvlwKljQJ1FtO5ZzeNXw_LI8pGBZOILHFPYmFzZZ_xMff-7EGr2Qf6k0AefBEFIjne00d1f3I6DhXN4gRUCvbXpOk7z81AtE-9dToqr7pvYFCEZrF4D7SYW_us/s1600/JCHS+Art+002.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNgqLIZqsLVxi5MujPdGvlwKljQJ1FtO5ZzeNXw_LI8pGBZOILHFPYmFzZZ_xMff-7EGr2Qf6k0AefBEFIjne00d1f3I6DhXN4gRUCvbXpOk7z81AtE-9dToqr7pvYFCEZrF4D7SYW_us/s200/JCHS+Art+002.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724228886680674834" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFXgbQpErm74aK_6fzLJre_liZuH4Rux9mV8LIYD7fo8hrCauI6BBRRhyKh-RMcjwabVj92qtW8kkzsLj8-w8qb6zr8GfJX3DqwI68qUe6V6WEYRRTfONprNJqS2Cy0_XifGZQZpBYjPk/s1600/JCHS+Art+004.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFXgbQpErm74aK_6fzLJre_liZuH4Rux9mV8LIYD7fo8hrCauI6BBRRhyKh-RMcjwabVj92qtW8kkzsLj8-w8qb6zr8GfJX3DqwI68qUe6V6WEYRRTfONprNJqS2Cy0_XifGZQZpBYjPk/s200/JCHS+Art+004.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724228802743805698" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKKmtK4coT2NIkHg8VywkPPJxBZ_wM05olkLFOg7NN8SvthB5lcRmhaT851RiGRwOK_wPK53BzylNZtZsoVoAI4wK7iLe_qXq-kmpBeq67awKRvzqC27ODSkfhgNn7Z2hxl5qSnKksHbc/s1600/JCHS+Art+001.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKKmtK4coT2NIkHg8VywkPPJxBZ_wM05olkLFOg7NN8SvthB5lcRmhaT851RiGRwOK_wPK53BzylNZtZsoVoAI4wK7iLe_qXq-kmpBeq67awKRvzqC27ODSkfhgNn7Z2hxl5qSnKksHbc/s200/JCHS+Art+001.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724228696417243010" border="0" /></a>The Caldwell Public Libraryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01323538908391146127noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5352415201979409688.post-4649276120676729192012-03-07T16:48:00.002-08:002012-03-07T16:59:37.074-08:00A Note to the Residents of Essex FellsIn the past, the Borough of Essex Fells reimbursed the Borough of Caldwell for library use by their residents. We were informed at last night's Caldwell Council Meeting that Essex Fells will no longer pay the usage fee. All Caldwell Library cards held by Essex Fells patrons will expire on April 1, 2012.<div><br /></div><div>While waiting for the Borough of Essex Fells to make their decision, we extended the cards as a courtesy to our Essex Fells patrons. We are saddened that in these times when residents need a library most, cuts are being made.</div><div><br /></div><div>The Caldwell Public Library, like many libraries in the state, offers free access to the internet, job search tools, access to free programming, and of course the free lending of books, magazines, e-books, DVDs, and other materials.</div><div><br /></div><div>We hope that Essex Fells will reconsider this decision.

For Caldwell's residents, Halloween's usual merriment was supplanted by worries over storm damage. No one expects a heavy snowstorm in October! On Halloween, the Caldwell Public Library became a haven for people who needed to get warm, check their email, charge their cell phone or their laptop, and stay connected to the world at large.<br /><br />We saw a record number of people enter the library, and it was literally standing room only. Our computers had a waiting list for people who needed access, and we had multiple users on their own wireless devices. One especially helpful staff member ran home to get extra power strips to allow more people access to our electricity.<br /><br />The Caldwell Public Library is known as the Heart of Our Town, and I believe we proved that our heart is open to everyone.<br /><br />Our younger patrons did enjoy trick or treating in the library, and we were pleased to see some great costumes! In the afternoon everyone enjoyed a showing of Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein, a great comedic horror classic.<br /><br />We hope that everyone who found us yesterday will continue to stop in and make use of our Library. Remember, we're here for everyone.The Caldwell Public

the town </p> <p class="MsoNormal">“We knew we had excellent readers, but we didn’t know we had such truly outstanding artists,” says Interim Director Janet Torsney. “The drawings were so imaginative

She thought we would have about 12 people show up, but more like 36 showed up for the talk. Then Frances took us out for a very enjoyable meal and chat before my talk at the Caldwell Public Library. Between 35 and 40 people showed up for that talk. I had a very pleasant surprise while setting up for the talk. I normally put on a CD of Amish church singing, as people are arriving. In this case, a woman was reading the New York Times, and suddenly she put down her paper and said, "Can you tell me what that music is?" I told her what it was, and she said it sounded just like the kind of singing that she grew up with at a Primitive Baptist Church, which I found fascinating. I invited her to give the audience a sampling of the singing she described, and she graciously did so -- and wow, what a powerful voice! Her name is Johnnie Jones Tucker, and she is a Gospel Singer/Songwriter/Writer/Poet. It was a pleasure to meet her.</span> <div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div> <div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">"Frances Larkey is another example of a librarian who is not only congenial, but she also went above and beyond. She was a gracious and enthusiastic host, who was fun and easy to talk with. And she had obviously done a super job of promoting the event, judging by the enthusiasm of the comments and questions and the number of people who showed up."<br /></span></div>The Caldwell Public Libraryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01323538908391146127noreply@blogger.com0
