Mark your calendars! The North Country Library System 2010 Annual Meeting is almost here. Join us:

Saturday, October 2nd
10:00 am
Jefferson Community College
Watertown, New York

Arrive early for refreshments and an opportunity to network with your colleagues. Discover what's new at the system.

This year's keynote speaker is Warren Graham, nationally renowned expert of day to day library security procedures and author of Black Belt Librarians: Every Librarian's Real World Guide to a Safer Workplace. Warren has been a security professional for twenty-five years and for seventeen years served as the Security and Safety Manager for the Public Library of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County. He retired in 2006 to establish his own training and consulting firm.

Security is a concern for libraries of all sizes. Warren's "real world" approach will be of value to trustees, library administrators and frontline staff.

A buffet lunch will be provided by NCLS after the close of the meeting. After lunch Warren will continue to share his expertise at a workshop for all who are interested.
