Georgetown Township Public Library 1525 Baldwin St Jenison, MI 49428 616.457.9620 At the Georgetown Township Public Library, we strive to provide the best services, materials and programming to meet the growing needs of our community. One of those needs is internet access. This need has never been more evident than in 2020 when many students and adults had to work from home. Despite a widespread advance in broadband coverage in our area of the past decade, the last year has shown that a technology gap still exists within our township, with many households having very insufficient access to no internet access at all. To help bridge this gap, the library offers use of mobile hotspots that provide internet access for up to 10 devices and can be checked out for 1 week. Thanks to a federal grant, we were able to purchase 10 hotspots but as you can imagine in a township our size, the need has far outgrown the resource. To help fund the purchase of additional devices, the library is hosting a virtual race, the Hobbit Day Run. This Tolkien-themed race will include options for participating in a 5K race (for which finishers will receive a t-shirt and medal) as well as a 10K, Half-Marathon, and full Marathon with volumes of the Lord of the Rings series awarded for each additional level reached. Since the race is virtual, participants will have from June 14th until National Hobbit day, September 22nd, to complete the race. Because we want to ensure that this is a community-wide endeavor as well as a successful fundraiser, we would love to include your business as a sponsor at a level that best fits your business. As a sponsor, your business would be mentioned in our advertising (print, website, and social media), have promotional material for your business included in the race bags, and would be listed on our race t-shirts which go to each participant. We appreciate all you do for this community and hope that we can add your name as a sponsor for this important event. Enclosed is a sponsorship form with various levels of support. If you are interested in being a sponsor, please complete the form and return to the library in person or via the USPS (1525 Baldwin Street Jenison, MI 49428) or e-mail to [email protected]. Please return by Friday, April 30 to be included on the race shirts. Thank you for your consideration and your support,.

    Edmund Drury 1 On Other Worlds Edmund Drury WorldsOn Other An Investigation into Worldbuilding A Dissertation By Edmund Drury 2 3 On Other Worlds Edmund Drury Contents Introduction 7 Fictional Worlds in Real Place 12 Maps and Fiction 29 Translation 60 Conclusion 78 List of Illustrations 90 Bibliography 95 Printed and Bound by Edmund Drury 4 5 On Other Worlds Edmund Drury Introduction ‘Above all, worldbuilding is not technically necessary. It is the great clomping foot of nerdism. It is the attempt to exhaustively survey a place that isn’t there. A good writer would never try to do that, even with a place that is there. It isn’t possible, & if it was the results wouldn’t be readable: they would constitute not a book but the biggest library ever built, a hallowed place of dedication & lifelong study. This gives us a clue to the psychological type of the worldbuilder & the worldbuilder’s victim, & makes us very afraid.’ (Harrison, 2007) So is worldbuilding just boring nerdism? Certainly not all aspects of worldbuilding appeal to everyone. According to many it was the lengthy detail of trade disputes and politics that made the new Star Wars trilogy such a disaster, and certain passages in Lord of the Rings, one of the key texts in fantasy worldbuilding, are not always the easiest to read. Of course M. John Harrison cannot be totally averse to worldbuilding (his best known work is set in the fi ctional city of Viriconium) but he believes that focusing on it as an activity in its own right risks putting the creative emphasis in the wrong place.

    September 2019 Harmony Hall A Brief History of Argentina Sebastian Cabot was the explorer who, in September of 1527, built a fort at the confluence of the Paraná and Carcarañá Rivers, thereby establishing the first European outpost in present-day Argentina. There is no better time than September, Hispanic Heritage Celebrating September Month, to celebrate these beginnings. Intrigued by rumors of silver and gold in the region, Cabot renamed Happy Cat Month the main estuary Río de la Plata, or River of Silver.

  • World Building
    TRANSMEDIA Boni (ed.) Transmedia, Fans, Industries Fans, Transmedia, World Building World Edited by Marta Boni World Building Transmedia, Fans, Industries World Building Transmedia: Participatory Culture and Media Convergence The book series Transmedia: Participatory Culture and Media Convergence provides a platform for cutting-edge research in the field of media studies, with a strong focus on the impact of digitization, globalization, and fan culture. The series is dedicated to publishing the highest-quality monographs (and exceptional edited collections) on the developing social, cultural, and economic practices surrounding media convergence and audience participation. The term ‘media convergence’ relates to the complex ways in which the production, distribution, and consumption of contemporary media are affected by digitization, while ‘participatory culture’ refers to the changing relationship between media producers and their audiences. Interdisciplinary by its very definition, the series will provide a publishing platform for international scholars doing new and critical research in relevant fields. While the main focus will be on contemporary media culture, the series is also open to research that focuses on the historical forebears of digital convergence culture, including histories of fandom, cross- and transmedia franchises, reception studies and audience ethnographies, and critical approaches to the culture industry and commodity culture.
