[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Lesson Learned

[Danell Haspel]

I thought it might be helpful to relay what steps I took to post my 
introduction, so others can learn from my mistake.  I went in my email and 
found the message that had the link to the page where we subscribed to the 
list.   I went back to that page because I had read earlier the part that said:

To post a message to all the list members, send email to 
eg_commun...@list.larl.orgmailto:eg_commun...@list.larl.org.

The problem was when I clicked on the link it automatically sends up an email 
window that is the default email account on the computer.  In my case, it was 
the dlreference account, and I didn't notice that information, and I sent it 
quick so I could help the patron/customer that walked up.

The moral of the story:   don't work on Evergreen at the reference desk 
in-between the interruptions.

Sorry for the trouble Josh!

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Introduction

[Danell Haspel]

Hello Evergreen Community,

I am a staff member at Lake Agassiz Regional Library System in the Detroit 
Lakes Library.  Detroit Lakes and surrounding area is known for its many lakes. 
 We provide many services in our library for summer tourists, and we have many 
patrons/customers that are snowbirds going south for the long Minnesota winters.

I've been at the Detroit Lakes Library as an associate librarian for 10 years.  
I write a weekly library column for our newspaper, The Detroit Lakes Tribune, 
and I really enjoy proofreading, so when I saw catching typos on the list of 
possible tasks for the Evergreen Committee I joined up.

My husband and I were high school sweethearts, and have been married 37 years.  
We have three grown children, Nate, Erin and Ryan who are all married.  We have 
six grandchildren whose ages range from 2-12 years old, and they keep us young 
(and busy).

I loved the slide show, and so far I'm just trying to fight the fear factor!
