Hmmm, I wonder too about Montana. Probably not bad if you're near a city. What is it, Bozeman? We missed the MLB too when we moved here, but we have the UNC baseball games which are fun....and the Durham Bulls too. Not quite the big leagues though! We were in Asheville last weekend. So beautiful. Not sure about the job market, I'd think pretty bad, unless you are independently wealthy to live there!

I wish! I have read in articles, though, that for the most part NC has held onto jobs better than most areas of the country. Good to know about the basbeball! I may have to do a little digging to see what I can find out about Montana libraries.

Hennepin County Library Hi Barbara - thanks for your note. We have not advertised on facebook but we did put notes on our catalog and website alerting users the page. Beyond that it's all been viral (we are a big library tho).

Hennepin County Library Hi Jenn -
This is a custom FBML application. Page owners are allowed to add two of these applications to their pages. The catalog search widget is the other on our page. They are not too hard to create if you know some basic HTML. The trick with the chat widget is that Flash is not allowed except after users click on a link or image. So the widget as it appears after the page loads is really an image that launches the Flash chat when clicked. Let me know if you would like more info.

Hennepin County Library Hi Erin -
You can request titles to pick up from suburban libraries now, but the process is not as streamlined as it wiil be in the future. Use MNLink, at https://www.mnlinkgateway.org/zportal/zengine?VDXaction=ZSearchAdvanced to place a request. A completely integrated catalog system is still a couple years away.
