Jane Lago<p>I had a conversation this afternoon with the director of my regional public library, about Libby. She said that tagging books as Notify Me is what tells her what to buy. Libby notifies her about the requests for books from users, and if any book has more than three requests, she orders it. So using Notify Me is important!!!<br><a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/Libby" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Libby</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/PublicLibraries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PublicLibraries</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/Books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Books</span></a></p>

Tamami<p>This is the final week of my solo show "High Desert Colors" at Northwest Reno Library. It went really quick! If you are local, please stop by before it closes at the end of the 23rd.<br>I'm so fortunate to have had this opportunity; the highlight of my artistic career! Also, remember that visiting libraries support the libraries.
