A Universe of Stories SUMMER 2019 A UNIVERSE OF STORIES bibblib.org FROM THE DIRECTOR Welcome to a Universe of Stories! This summer, we encourage you to explore the universe, whether we look to the stars to imagine the secrets they possess, or we delve into the galaxies we each hold within us. The Universe of Stories encompasses the science of space exploration, the imaginative worlds of science fiction, and so much more. We think you’ll find there’s something for everyone. As we explore the Universe of Stories, we invite you to take advantage of all the opportunities you’ll find at your local libraries, whether it is checking out passes for adventures across the state, stopping by a branch for a puppet show, trivia night, or space craft, or just finding the perfect summer read to enjoy on a quiet afternoon. Read on! Jennifer Lautzenheiser Director, Middle Georgia Regional Library WHAT’S INSIDE 3 WHY SUMMER READING 4 GET STARTED 5 PROGRAMS BY BRANCH 10 PASSES & FREEBIES 11 LEADERS IN LITERACY BACK COVER HOURS & LOCATIONS The mission of the Middle Georgia Regional Library is to connect all people to the information necessary to improve their lives through excellent services and materials. 2 Summer 2019 WHY SUMMER READING? Summer Reading Programs have been a tradition in American public libraries for generations, but do you know why this yearly rite has stood the test of time? Here are just some of the reasons you should sign up for the 2019 Summer Reading Program today! • Summer Reading encourages reading to become a lifelong habit. Building an early reading habit helps kids from pre-K on. Students who read independently score higher on achievement tests in all subject areas, and have greater content knowledge than those who do not. • Reluctant readers can be drawn in by the activities, and without the pressures of school, they can find the right book to spark their love of reading. If you or your child needs help to find the perfect book, your librarian can help you find something to excite everyone. • Summer learning loss is a major problem for school-aged children. Kids spend up to two months of every school year recovering the reading skills they lost over the summer. Participating in a summer reading program helps children keep their skills up! Reading helps build focus and concentration, and readers are better writers. • Making a habit of reading helps to build vocabulary, improve memory, and reduce stress. Reading for a few minutes at bedtime also helps improve sleep. This is true for readers of any age, so families can make reading a habit together and reap the rewards together too. The Summer Reading Program also provides something that many families need more of- an opportunity to have fun and spend time together. That family time costs nothing but means everything.

    ABSTRACT HISTORY TATE. RACHANICE CANDY PATRICE B.A. EMORY UNIVERSITY, 1987 M.P.A. GEORGIA STATE UNIVERSITY, 1990 M.A. UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN- MILWAUKEE, 1995 “OUR ART ITSELF WAS OUR ACTIVISM”: ATLANTA’S NEIGHBORHOOD ARTS CENTER, 1975-1990 Committee Chair: Richard Allen Morton. Ph.D. Dissertation dated May 2012 This cultural history study examined Atlanta’s Neighborhood Arts Center (NAC), which existed from 1975 to 1990, as an example of black cultural politics in the South. As a Black Arts Movement (BAM) institution, this regional expression has been missing from academic discussions of the period. The study investigated the multidisciplinary programming that was created to fulfill its motto of “Art for People’s Sake.” The five themes developed from the program research included: 1) the NAC represented the juxtaposition between the individual and the community, local and national; 2) the NAC reached out and extended the arts to the masses, rather than just focusing on the black middle class and white supporters; 3) the NAC was distinctive in space and location; 4) the NAC seemed to provide more opportunities for women artists than traditional BAM organizations; and 5) the NAC had a specific mission to elevate the social and political consciousness of black people. In addition to placing the Neighborhood Arts Center among the regional branches of the BAM family tree, using the programmatic findings, this research analyzed three themes found to be present in the black cultural politics of Atlanta which made for the center’s unique grassroots contributions to the movement. The themes centered on a history of politics, racial issues, and class dynamics.

  • The Atlanta Preservation Center's
    THE ATLANTA PRESERVATION CENTER’S Phoenix2017 Flies A CELEBRATION OF ATLANTA’S HISTORIC SITES FREE CITY-WIDE EVENTS PRESERVEATLANTA.COM Welcome to Phoenix Flies ust as the Grant Mansion, the home of the Atlanta Preservation Center, was being constructed in the mid-1850s, the idea of historic preservation in America was being formulated. It was the invention of women, specifically, the ladies who came J together to preserve George Washington’s Mount Vernon. The motives behind their efforts were rich and complicated and they sought nothing less than to exemplify American character and to illustrate a national identity. In the ensuing decades examples of historic preservation emerged along with the expanding roles for women in American life: The Ladies Hermitage Association in Nashville, Stratford in Virginia, the D.A.R., and the Colonial Dames all promoted preservation as a mission and as vehicles for teaching contributive citizenship. The 1895 Cotton States and International Exposition held in Piedmont Park here in Atlanta featured not only the first Pavilion in an international fair to be designed by a woman architect, but also a Colonial Kitchen and exhibits of historic artifacts as well as the promotion of education and the arts. Women were leaders in the nurture of the arts to enrich American culture. Here in Atlanta they were a force in the establishment of the Opera, Ballet, and Visual arts. Early efforts to preserve old Atlanta, such as the Leyden Columns and the Wren’s Nest were the initiatives of women. The Atlanta Preservation Center, founded in 1979, was championed by the Junior League and headed by Eileen Rhea Brown.

  • Poets, Artists & Madmen
    POETS, ARTISTS & MADMEN tlanta’s art scene is on the verge of something significant — teetering between mak- ing it and breaking it. Long Aregarded as a creative hodgepodge, the city’s poets, artists and madmen have worked tirelessly in the last year to help redefine the city’s artistic identity. They attracted international attention with the colossal grassroots street art conference Living Walls, improved our public art profile with gloATL and Art on the Belt- line, and cultivated the kind of TV- and filmmaking-friendly environment that’s allowed for the conversion of Lakewood Fairgrounds into a Hollywood-worthy soundstage, and the local filming of AMC’s “The Walking Dead.” So what does the future hold for the arts in Atlanta?

Box 5867 Atlanta, Georgia 31107 Ms. Smith: Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to review your organization’s current marketing techniques and suggesting new ways to boost your current results. Overall, we found that Dad’s Garage has great potential to expand its marketing of its current products but also has many areas that need improvement. There needs to be major changes to the organization’s website, such as creating a mobile friendly version, updating product and organizational information, and adding interactive components to enhance user experience; customer service, such as responding and resolving customer grievances, enhancing open communication methods so that guests can contact staff when there’s an issue and/or question; and establishing the most effective plans for the target market, such as monitoring the way Millennials use the internet, joining social media platforms that Millennials use more often, and providing the right content that will entice the intended market to utilize the products offered by the organization. This marketing evaluation and plan analyzes the current state of the organization with its current resources and explores in detail the main areas of improvement and presents innovative ideas to boost marketing results and the overall attendance and utilization of Dad’s Garage products and programs. Thank you again for the opportunity and please find attached the analysis and suggestions to take Dad’s Garage to the next level in the Atlanta theatre market.
