HAYES: Steve Hayes, 9 University of Notre Dame. 10 CHAIRPERSON SEARS: Thank you, 11 council. I get tasked with all of the 12 housekeeping items. I have a long list here 13 so bear with me. First off restroom locations 14 for this meeting room. 15 If you go out to the registration 16 table there is a little hallway and like an 17 escalator that goes down and they are right 18 next to that so if you go to the registration 19 table, make a little bitty right and then a 20 left and the men's and women's restrooms are 21 right there. 22 Also, if everybody could please 23 turn their cell phones off or to silent it 5 1 would be much appreciated. To all of the 2 speakers both in this meeting and throughout 3 the conference, we would appreciate it. 4 The sireless in the room, we have 5 wireless for about a hundred people so I think 6 we'll be fine. You need to go to the P-A-S-V 7 when you're looking for your wireless network. 8 PASV is the network and the password is U-S-G- 9 P-O, all in lowercase. 10 We do have live blogging and so, 11 although the council members will not be live 12 blogging, they will be reading the questions 13 into the record if there are any from the live 14 blog. 15 We also have a Twitter hashtag, 16 which is #dlc10f. So announcements: there is 17 an announcement board that is back by the 18 registration table. If you are trying to meet 19 with a group of people for lunch or have just 20 general announcements to make to the 21 community, that is where you need to put them. 22 Also you can hand them to me and I 23 can make announcements during the beginning or 6 1 the end of our different council sessions 2 throughout the conference. 3 The audience questions, if you are 4 new to council meetings, the way that it works 5 is after the presentations we open up to the 6 floor for questions. Usually we ask questions 7 for the council first because GPO has paid for 8 us to come here to get information so we try 9 to get our questions answered. 10 After council is through asking 11 questions we will open it up to the audience. 12 You have microphones in the middle of the 13 floor for you to come up to and line up and we 14 will call on you to ask your question. We do 15 ask that since we have a court reporter that 16 you do state your name and your institution so 17 that we know who you are for the record. 18 If you're not comfortable coming 19 to the mic and you have a burning question we 20 do encourage you to ask that of the council 21 members during the breaks. We do ask that you 22 please be respectful if we're running to the 23 bathroom to let us go there first. Then you 7 1 will have all of our undivided attention if 2 you do that for us. 3 You can also write it down on your 4 FDLP pads and hand it to the registration 5 table and they will make sure that we get it 6 up here and we will try and get those 7 questions answered. 8 Your packets have orange 9 evaluations in them and we do ask that you 10 fill those out. When we're planning for April 11 it will be very important to us to have that 12 information from how you felt about this 13 conference and what sessions you would like to 14 see and what things you would like council to 15 consider. 16 Also in your packets are some of 17 the handouts for the sessions that council 18 will be giving. In the backs of some of those 19 slides you will find discussion questions that 20 are questions we are going to be asking during 21 those sessions so if you would like to read 22 ahead on those questions and be prepared to 23 discuss those questions, that would be very 8 1 helpful to us. 2 Today at noon is the regional 3 selective lunch. I already have seen out on 4 the announcement boards the Texas librarians 5 are meeting at the registration table at noon, 6 the Kansas librarians are meeting at the 7 registration table at noon, the Michigan 8 librarians are meeting at the registration 9 table at noon. 10 Also the California librarians are 11 meeting at the hotel cafe outside at the front 12 at 12:05, I believe, is what it says. Is that 13 correct, David? 14 (No Response) 15 CHAIRPERSON SEARS: Somebody 16 handed me Florida, Puerto Rico, and U.S. 17 Virgin Islands are meeting at noon in the 18 lower lobby.

  • Acknowledgments
    ACKNOWLEDGMENTS For me there are several layers of “thanks with appreciation” about my learning and re- thinking the Ishi saga over time. A wide swath of territory in northern California was involved. Help I received in researching several subject areas must be addressed. There was the preliminary scholarship of Ishi’s life-story profled shortly after Ishi’s contact years (1911-1916). This layer of gratitude I extend to Thomas T. Waterman (1918b) Alfred L. Kroeber (1925) and Saxton T. Pope Sr.. (1920). Contributor in 1915 was linguist Edward Sapir who “captured his readiest language, the southernmost Yana language, christened the Yahi language. There was afterwards a hiatus of almost ffty years when Ishi, the man, was almost forgot- ten, save for Pope’s 1925 Hunting with the Bow and Arrow. In 1949, some readers heard anew about Ishi from W. H. Hutchinson’s “Ishi – The Unconquered” published in Natural History, Vol. 58. Theodora Kroeber made Ishi famous for a second time by writing. in 1961, Ishi In Two Worlds (University of California Press) and by publishing in the Book Section of the Reader’s Digest (December 1961) her condensed version of her book. I credit Theodora Kroeber for inspiring me about Ishi. That traditional California Indians could successfully “call in” to them the animals from the forest foor intrigued me. If they knew that much about the animal world, what more did they know about the Land? Promoting the Ishi story were Robert Heizer and Albert Elsasser. I acknowledge both of them for collecting, reviewing, and publishing data about Ishi that I have used.

Chosen for their success in meeting the needs of Angelenos by providing a high level of social, educational and cultural services, LAPL was specifically recognized for its programs that help people on their path to citizenship, earn their high school diploma, manage their personal finances, and access health and well-being services and resources. The power of these library services is illustrated by the story of Sergio and Francisca Sanchez: After moving to the U.S. from Veracruz, Mexico, Sergio and Francisca brought their toddler son to the Los Angeles Public Library for storytime, and continued to bring him for many years. Sergio studied English and history and read the news at the library during his free time. While waiting for his son, Sergio discovered that library staff and services could help him study for and pass the U.S.
