Trendspotting III—Was it everything you wanted to know about Open Source?

U

niversity of Hartford's Harry Jack Gray Conference Center hosted 100 truth (or dare?) seekers on Friday, March 14.

After a warm welcome by CLC Board Chair and UHart's Library Director Randi Ashton-Pritting, OCLC's George Needham kicked off with his keynote, Unlocking the Walled Gardens. (For a copy of his presentation go to www.ctlibrarians.org)

Next, young CEO Josh Ferraro talked about LibLime, the company he founded to answer one of the objections that librarians might have to migrating to an Open Source ILS (Integrated Library System)—the lack of outside technical support that one would get (or not!) from a vendor of proprietary ILS software. University of Hartford's Head of Technical Services Ben Ide pinch hit for University of Rochester's David Lindahl, who had the flu. Ben talked about the University's contract with WALDO to go with Open Source when their present contract with a proprietary vendor expires next year. (CCALD, the CT Council of Academic Library Directors, may invite Mr. Lindahl to discuss his extensible catalog project later this year; if anyone would like a preview, listen to his podcast from the 5 Colleges Symposium at www.smith.edu/libraries/ staff/fivecoll/nextgen.htm.) Carl Grant, a library automation veteran, spoke about his new service company for libraries, CARE Affiliates, which was formed "in response to concerns librarians have expressed over needing lower costs, more interoperability, control, and flexibility in their automation solutions."

We heard from Karen Schneider (right, with Darien's Kate Sheehan), whom many of you know as the Free Range Librarian and the moderator of PubLib. Karen is Head of Research & Development at Florida's College Center for Library Automation. Her thoughts on open source? "We've been paying for the wrong things. It makes more sense to just put the software out there for free, and pay to have it supported and developed. With open source, you get agility, speed —and it just works." After lunch in the 1877 Club, vendors Brien McDonald of Greenwood Ebooks, and Lou Mutty of Books 24x7 presented in the breakout rooms; and John Stromquist, Director of CLC's longtime partner WALDO, discussed WALDO’s adventurous project with LibLime—to support a migration to Koha Zoom from Endeavour's Voyager system by the 2010-2011 school year. See page 7 for more photos from Trendspotting III...

March 14 Was Only the Beginning! Those of you who still haven't gotten enough should mark your calendars for 10 am on April 21 at North Haven Memorial Library—the next meeting of CT's Open Source Study Group. To stay informed and inform others about CT's Open Source projects, send an email to the State Library’s Steve Cauffman at scauffman@cslib.org, who will add you to the OSSG's discussion list.

Library Happenings and Member News Children's Librarian Megan Quigley of Saxton B. Little Free Library (Columbia) created a teen event around decorating a new bookshelf in the children's section. Local teens were asked to help decorate the bookshelf by choosing, arranging, and decoupaging pictures from their favorite children's books to the top of the shelf. Parents that come in with their children comment on the shelf artwork all the time and have fun finding favorite book characters on it! Representatives of the Springfield, Massachusetts Basketball Hall of Fame visited Clinton’s Henry Carter Hull Library to show off sports memorabilia, including a pair of Shaquille O'Neal's size 22 basketball shoes (held by Reference Librarian David Boudinot). After a presentation on the history of basketball, the audience—including many children wearing their favorite sports jerseys—were allowed to try on O'Neal's shoes and pose for photos. The Teen Book Discussion Group at Avon Free Public Library won the national Mirrorstone Wizards Movie Trailer competition. The Avon teens read the book Hallowmere by Tiffany Trent in their discussion group. They designed and created all aspects of Trent's story into the production of a movie trailer. The teens won the grand prize—a brand new Nintendo Wii entertainment system. Library Specialist Amber Lansing supervised the program. The CT Forum is hosting Talking Authors on Thursday, May 1 at the Bushnell Theatre in Hartford. Amy Tan, Alexander McCall Smith, and Lemony Snicket (aka Daniel Handler) will have an unscripted discussion before an audience of 2,800. The Forum is offering book groups and fans the opportunity to meet and greet these authors back stage and/or at private receptions, and get autographed books and photos. Librarians can direct book group members and patrons to call 860.509.0909, ext. 12, or email Bobbie Bartucca at bbartucca@ctforum.org. Additional details can be found at www.ctforum.org.

Oxford Public Library Director Dawn Higginson spent time "behind bars" recently to raise money for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Dawn spent an hour in jail calling prospective donors and raised $850 in bail money in order to get "sprung." All together, the event raised more than $32,000 to provide life-saving research for CT residents with neuromuscular disease. The gang at Easton's Helen Keller MS at the CLC sponsored Linworth webinar on copyright. Back row: Lisa Mellen and Marion Carlson (Helen Keller MS). Front row: Media Specialist Evelyn Reeve (John Read MS), Carol Weinshel (Helen Keller MS), John Crowley (Joel Barlow HS), and Lynne Duffy (Samuel Staples ES). Goodbyes are coming too soon for two of CT's finest who will be retiring at the end of the year: Betsy Bray from her job as Library Director at Cora J. Belden Library (Rocky Hill), and Laura Kahkonen from her job as Library Director in Windsor. Kitty Lyons, Manager of Children's Services and then Community Connections for Children's Services, will be "retiring" from Westport PL. "Miss Kitty" has been at Westport since 1993 after arriving in the state from the Plymouth, MA Library. There will be a public party on April 23. Congratulations to Rocky Hill's Cora J. Belden Library Book Cart Drill Team, winners of the Judges Award in Hartford's Saint Patrick's Day parade. The official trophy will be presented at a Town Council meeting in April. The team was also mentioned in the Hartford Courant's coverage of the event in Sunday's paper.

Happenings and Member News WestportREADS has chosen The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum for its 2008 community reading project. Join the celebration of Westport Library's 100th birthday and read Harry Potter—the 1908 version. It's a children's classic, a movie perennial, a Broadway show, and a study in politics and economics. And it promises a lot of fun! After more than 50 years, Fahrenheit 451, Ray Bradbury's cautionary tale of bookburnings and state-enforced thought control, still strikes a nerve. That’s why it was chosen as The Big Read for Greater New Haven and Norwalk. Norwalk Public Library kicks-off its three month program on April 5. Visit www.thebigreadnorwalk.org for complete details on Norwalk’s Big Read activities. The launch of The Big Read-Greater New Haven takes place on May 1 at the Shuburt Theatre in New Haven. Scholar Mark Schenker will moderate an exciting talk inspired by the text. For more information call 203.498.3723. Jeanne Sohn retired as Central Connecticut State University's library director, effective March 31. She will still be at CCSU during the summer as the interim director, filling in until the University can hire someone new. Rob Simon, Director of the Edith Wheeler Memorial Library (Monroe), will start his new job as Library Director at the Canton Public Library on April 14.

The West Hartford Public Library is celebrating a donation that will never be forgotten. Two million dollars has been bequeathed to the library by former librarian Thomas F. Kilfoil. Mr. Kilfoil worked at the library for 33 years, from 1968 to 2002. He served as head of circulation and then as head of reference services for many years. He passed away in 2005, at age 82. Fairfield's first One Book, Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace One School at a Time, was dedicated to the memory of Anne Marie Carey, a Fairfield librarian for many years who was moved by the author's ability to make a difference in the lives of others. A reception for author Greg Mortensen at the library culminated a full month of One Book One Town programs. Above: Waiting to get their books signed are Fairfield Library's Nancy Coriaty, Karen Ronald, and Mary Carroll Marilees. The Groton Public Library will celebrate Support Teen Literature Day with a Young Adult Author's Night on Thursday, April 17 at 7 pm. The following authors are scheduled to appear and discuss their work: E.M. Alexander, Death at Deacon Pond; MJ Allaire, The Denicalis Dragon Chronicles: Dragon's Blood and The Prisoner; Lucas Baker, Jess and Zoey; Daniella Brodsky, One Trick Pony; Maddy Kobar, Godsland Tales: Big Business; Libby Koponen, Blow Out the Moon; and Daniel Waters, Generation Dead. At the conclusion of the presentation, copies of the books will be available for sale and autographing. This is a wonderful opportunity to meet and greet some very talented writers. For more information, please contact Anne Campbell at acampbell@grotonpl.org.
