UCO item found at Waupun Public Library

The following UCO ("Unidentified Circulation Object") was reported found at Waupun Public Library on 2/16/09:

Title: Arthur's Teacher Trouble
Call Number: EB
Author: Brown, Marc
Bar Code: 35142000516863
Item Format: Book
Notes: Owning Library is Longfellow Elementary School.
I contacted schools with the name Longfellow Elementary School in the communities of Clintonville, Eau Claire, La Crosse (this was a middle school though), Milwaukee, Sheboygan and West Allis.  Someone mentioned that Madison had one, so I contacted the schools there, but they no longer have one called Longfellow.  I do not think a middle or high school would own this book because it is a picture book.  I put a message on the wispublib listserv, but exhausted all the communities recommended on there.  A teacher recently posted something to the wemta listserv, but I haven't heard back from anyone yet.

If yours, please contact: Pam Garcia at Waupun Public Library, pgarcia@mwfls.org

SCLS Delivery website redesign

The SCLS Delivery website has been re-designed, revised, and updated as of February 2009.  A few highlights of the new site:

• Delivery Network List is now one alphabetical master list of all Wisconsin delivery network libraries including schools, public libraries, academic libraries, etc.  A printable version of the list (PDF format) is available from the network home page. Delivery times are included in the last column of the delivery network list.
• Lost and Found in Delivery list has been moved to an Excel 2003 spreadsheet to allow for easier sorting.  There is a new lost item submission form to add items to the list.
• Special Requests and Wisconsin Libraries Distribution pages have been updated and the information on them has been clarified.
• Get In The Van, the SCLS Delivery Service blog, has been redesigned and includes options for subscribing to the RSS feed.
• Separate sections with specific information for SCLS member public libraries and Wisconsin statewide delivery network libraries have been created.  Each section includes volume statistics, SCLS Delivery contacts, shipping guidelines with links to routing label templates, and links to other information specific to each user type.
• Site navigation is color coded for the sections of the site for SCLS member libraries (green), statewide delivery network members (blue), and sections of interest to both (burgundy). 

Several sections have been added, deleted from, or moved from the old site.  Please update your browser bookmarks.

Feedback on the new design is appreciated and encouraged.  Comments, suggestions, and questions can be e-mailed to Tim Drexler or use the "contact the webmaster" link at the bottom of each page.
