Mail Flow Delays
Posted by Jay Allred on 18 August 2015 03:19 PM
Final Update
Below is the final update from Intel/McAfee. Please keep in mind that when they talk about network issues they are referring to the Intel/McAfee network and not the BizCom/CloudAny network.
Yesterday morning a network issue in one of our primary data centers caused our EPS and WPS services to be unavailable for about 50% of our traffic in North America.
To recover services, traffic was redirected to a secondary site. After the source of the network issue was discovered and removed from the topology, network traffic was failed back. After normal operation in this facility for several hours a second network issue impacting email throughput started at about 4 pm MDT on August 18.
At 5:30 am MDT on August 19 a routing change was made at this facility to use an alternate network path. Once this change was made the performance issues were resolved and both EPS and WPS services returned to normal operating parameters.
Some customers may see residual delayed emails delivering as messages that were tempfailed during this outage are resent by the sending servers based on that server's retry settings.
At this time, all services have been returned to normal function.
Thank you for your patience!
BizCom Support
Update 2
We received word from Intel/McAfee that they are continuing to work on the outbound mail flow issue and will be making some changes at 7:00pm MDT that may affect mail flow temporarily in order to resolve the issue.
BizCom Support has been monitoring the outbound queues on our system and the outbound queues are almost empty, which means most outbound emails should have been delivered.
We will continue to monitor the situation and post an update when we have an official resolution from Intel/McAfee.
Thank you for your patience.
BizCom Support
Update 1
We have received word that Intel/McAfee has resolved the issue with inbound mail flow but is still investigating outbound mail flow. We will continue to monitor the situation and post updates as they become available.
Thank you for your patience.
BizCom Support
Original Notification
A delay in inbound and outbound email has been reported by our anti-spam/anti-virus partner, Intel/McAfee. The issue appears to be a network issue and Intel/McAfee is in the processing of remediating the issue. BizCom Support is monitoring inbound/outbound queues on our systems.
Symptoms you may notice are delays in receiving emails from external senders and external senders reporting delays in receiving email from you.
We will update this notice as soon as we detect that email is flowing normally again.
Thank you for your patience,
BizCom Support.

Web Server Upgrades
Posted by Don Rodger on 12 March 2015 10:56 AM
We are currently migrating websites from our older web servers to new servers in our Michigan data center. We do not expect any downtime during this migration.
If your DNS is hosted with BizCom, there is nothing that needs to be done on your end. However, if you have internal DNS that has a hardcoded IP address pointing to your website, you will need to change your wildcard and www records to point to the new IP address which is 126.96.36.199.
If you control your DNS, you will need to update your DNS records. We will contact you about this should we find that BizCom does not host your DNS.
This migration will happen over the course of the next few months as we continue to upgrade our systems and services.
If you have any questions, please open a support ticket at https://support.bizcomweb.com or call our main number at 919-855-8399.
Thank you for choosing BizCom Web Services.

Grade Range: K-12Resource Type(s): Artifacts, Primary SourceDate Posted: 9/3/2008
African American soldiers were allowed to enlist in the regular peacetime army of the United States for the first time at the end of the Civil War. Many of the new regulars had fought as United States Colored Troops during the war. By 1869, four African American regiments—the 9th and 10th Cavalry, the 24th and 25 Infantry—had been dispatched to the western frontier wars. Their duties were not limited to fighting Indians, who first called them "buffalo soldiers." In garrison, they drilled, stood guard, and maintained horses, barracks, weapons, and equipment. In the field, they patrolled harsh terrain in every extreme of weather, built or rebuilt army posts, strung telegraph wire, and escorted settlers, cattle herds, and railroad crews.

Best Titanic Visitor Experience and Giant's Causeway Day Trip from Dublin
Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Best Titanic Visitor Experience and Giant's Causeway Day Trip from Dublin. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
Enjoyed the tour bust stop At Titanic was not long enough. Rest of tour was very good and Kevin was a great guide and very good historian and I really enjoyed talking with him at our stops.
Beyond amazing!!!!!! Great tour guides and accommodations. Loved Ireland, We'll be back!!!!!!!!
Michelle Chan
Great tour! Jim was a good and informative guide. The titanic exhibition was great although we didn't have enough time to complete it. There are lots of walking to the Giant's Causeway and to the Carrick-a-rede bridge but all worth the trek! All 3 places were crowded but you will still get to enjoy your time there
Fantastic tour! There is a lot of walking, climbing type activities during this tour. If you are fairly active, it's no problem. If you have limited mobility, this would be a challenging day for you.
The tour guide was informative and she had lots of information about the history of Northern Ireland.
I absolutely loved the Giant's Causeway. I have seen lots of photos, but once you are actually standing there, it's surreal.
Wonderful day trip. We could have had more time at the Titanic Museum because it is excellent and there is so much to see. The Giant's Causeway was even more amazing than the photos.
I recently did the trip to the Giants Causeway with my grandson Lucas.
Included was a tour in the Black taxi. Fantastic you see places you would not normally go to.
And the Carrick a Rede Rope Bridge.
Out guide was Rob, He has so much knowledge, it was absolutely brilliant.
We enjoyed it so much we booked to go to Kilkenny the same week. It was like going out with the family.
They gave so much information about Ireland that it makes you want to come back for more.
Kilkenny was amazing, the caves were something not to be missed. And Kilkenny Castle.
The wishing well. And the walks to the lakes. Yes, like a family day out.
So much fitted into the two trips.
Rob had time to talk to everyone. I told him he should do a CD of each trip.
We go back to France after a fabulous week, and more knowledge of ireland.
thanks for the ice cream Bill
Vera and Lucas
The trip was a nice way to get out of Dublin and see more of the countryside and the coast. The tour was well organized, with a knowledgeable and entertaining guide.
Great energetic day out , I hadn't realised that this tour is simply exhausting and I had booked to go on a Dublin by night open top bus tour in the evening, and without a proper meal all day, really there is not much time for that but it is worth it, fantastic geographical sights, the titanic experience was amazing and the rope bridge is a 20 mins uphill walk and 20 mins back down hill so you take note, unless you are quite fit , I seriously advice in making any plans for the night when taking this trip.
Had a fantastic time! The new Titanic Museum was one of the best, if not the best museum I have ever been too... And the North Irish coast was so beautiful! Our guide JP and driver Jonny were really fantastic and really were part of making the trip so memorable! Thanks SO much :-)
The coast is stunning! I picked the Titanic experience and it was OK. I wonder if I should have taken a taxi. It was neat to see where the ship was built regardless.
This tour was amazing!
Excellent tour with guide Robbie who was very interesting and knowledgeable. We took the Titanic option which is well worth the visit. A most enjoyable day. Thanks.
Really great go......tour guide Kevin and driver Richard excellent,.,,Kevin very informative with Irish history
This tour was amazing!
excellent trip. The tour guide very knowledgeable. Excellent value for money. Titanic visitors centre excellent The Giants Causeway amazing. The rope Bridge was an amazing experience. Loved the whole trip
Wonderful tour. Highly recommend this tour! Robbie the tour guide was very friendly and knowledgable.
While the titanic tour was a bit disappointing (not sure what I was waiting for though) the rest of the trip was magnificent.. Amazing sceneries.. Our guide was Telling stories as we drive through the different regions. Trip worth doing. To be recommended
Our guide, Robbie was very knowledgeable I do not feel we missed anything. Our driver was great, Fantastic scenery and wonderful tour! Take this tour if you do not have a long time in Ireland Thanks again
S comforti
Ray and Robbie were great Tour guides. Very informative and friendly. The Causeway was amazing, and the area around it is very scenic, the Titanic museum was nice and interesting. That being said people were raving about the Black Taxi tour. Either way you won't complain.

My teenage daughter and I took this trip November 15, 2014 with Robbie and Paul. Excellent trip!!! Robbie had a wonderful of keeping us all on time, since no one wants to sign their national anthems lol!
My daughter and I went on the black cab tour around Belfast and I highly recommend this trip if you'd like to hear from people who lived during "the troubles"
Next it was on to the rope bride and then the Giants Causeway. Both of theses sight could be all day trips if you're into hiking some of the surrounding area. It is absolutely gorgeous scenery!!!
I can't say enough about Robbie and Paul. They helped make this trip ore enjoyable by sharing some of their experiences. Well...Robbie did all the talking and Paul concentrated on getting us around safely. Will definitely be doing some of their other tours the next time we're back in Dublin!!!
Both taxi tour and titanic were excellent. The giants causeway was unique and fun.
Great trip Rob our tour guide very informative.
The tour was a lot of fun! The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly as well.
Black cab tour was an unexpected bonus.
This day trip is long, but so worth it for the sights, sounds, tastes, textures and experiences of Belfast, the Titanic Exhibition, Antrim Coast, Giants Causeway and Carrick - A - Rede bridge. Our driver, Mick was highly efficient and punctual and Rob, the tour guide was really informative, painting the history of the areas of Northern Ireland that we drove through.

Hi...I'm Ben and am relatively new to Airbnb (stayed in Frankfurt with a couple of people last year) and have just finished a contract in Berlin. I'm now back in the UK but have been offered a job in Luxembourgh City and am looking for somewhere to live for a month or two while I find somewhere more permanent.
I'm an IT Project Manager, although I like to think I'm a little bit more of an interesting person than my job title suggests. I live for good food, really enjoy cooking (I hear the food in Luxembourgh is very good!) and love to travel.
Anyway...I look forward to hopefully meeting one of you 'Airbnb' Luxembourghers, and preferably before the end of February!!!

Another company has received the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) seal of approval.
Akamai Technologies has been granted provisional approval to offer cloud services to the government after meeting the rigorous requirements of the government's standardized approach to security assessment for cloud services, becoming the ninth vendor to do so.
GCN, a sister publication of FCW, first reported the news Aug. 29, noting Akamai received the FedRAMp Joint Authorization Board's provision authorization, which involves "a thorough review by chief information officers of the General Services Administration, and Homeland Security and Defense departments."
Akamai was assisted through the FedRAMP process by Knowledge Consulting Group, a FedRAMP-accredited third-party assessment organization. Its certified and accredited offerings include content delivery, secure content delivery, HD streaming, NetStorage, global traffic management and enhanced Domain Name System.
GCN reported that 14 of the 15 Cabinet-level agencies already use Akamai's Intelligent Platform, but its FedRAMP approval encourages other agencies to use Akamai as a cloud service provider or as a front-end network to other FedRAMP cloud providers.
Five other cloud providers have been granted provisional authority in addition to Akamai: AT&T, Autonomic Resources, CGI Federal, Hewlett-Packard and Lockheed Martin.
Three other cloud providers have been granted agency authority to operate, according to GCN: Amazon Web Services' GovCloud and US East/West offerings, each receiving authorization by the Health and Human Services Department earlier this year; and the Department of Agriculture's National Information Technology Center, which has also been granted an authority to operate by the USDA Office of the CIO – the only federal agency to meet FedRAMP's requirements thus far.

The process, review, acceptable risk, and rigor is vastly different from a JAB FedRAMP P-ATO (independence, interactive 6+month review by technical and security experts from DHS, DOD and GSA - looking for secure CSPs that meet needs government-wide - and requires continuous monitoring) v. a short review of one agency's eyes for a specific application or service for a specific agency. Night and Day. Not even the FedRAMP website explains the difference well - but an agency should educate themselves thoroughly before signing on to anything less than a JAB FedRAMP P-ATO.
The article states that Akamai is the 9th vendor to receive FedRAMP approval, then lists only five others. The other three are characterized as receiving "agency authority to operate," implying it's not the same as FedRAMP ATO (presumably being issued by an individual agency for its own enterprise). Then it concludes by stating that one of those three is the only federal agency to achieve FedRAMP approval. It doesn't seem like all those statements can be true. Does an agency ATO somehow equate to FedRAMP approval?

Hi there! First off, happy October!! Texas weather has started taking a turn for the best, with cooler mornings and leaves turning shades. Helloooo autumn!
So today and in recent weeks, I've been mulling over this concept of how we can help our spouses realize their potential. Do we realize that marriage is more than about being happy and helping each other "get through life"? (Wow, what a small vision for our marriages!)
As your spouse's closest friend, confidante, and live-in partner, you have an up close & personal view of their life. You see what they may hide from others. You know their strengths & weaknesses all too well — and you're privy to their heart's desires.
As a wife, I have unique insight into my wonderful husband's gifts and talents. I believe God designed it this way — that he & I could be powerful seers into each other's lives & call out the gifts we notice on display there. We must pay attention to the seeds of greatness we notice starting to form tiny buds in our husband or wife's life. And what greater way to encourage and build each other up than to SHARE what we see WITH our spouses?!
In many ways, when our spouse realizes their potential, so can we. It's like climbing a mountain together. You've got each other's backs, sharing resources, help, and encouragement all the way up. But you also wait patiently for the other when they need time to catch their breath, and you're there to help should they stumble or get injured. And you're most certainly there with them when they reach the top!
Not sure how to "call out your spouse's potential" and help them realize their dreams? Here are some practical ideas. I hope you'll get started on this TODAY

The Baby Food Diet
The Baby Food Diet
The basic baby food diet consists of eating 14 jars of puréed baby food throughout the day, followed by a healthy dinner. One might argue that consuming puréed fruits and vegetables contributes toward your ingesting the recommended daily intake of fruits and vegetables. You might say that baby food is additive-free. But, the negatives far out-weigh the positives. Baby food is not engineered for adults. It's for babies! You will find that you're not ingesting the proper nutrients. The diet can cause your metabolism to slow down and trigger your body to store the calories that you are eating as fat. If this plan still appeals to you, look beyond the idea of cute little containers of applesauce, peaches and pears, and think puréed meats. Ask yourself, "Really? I am going to follow this plan for how long?"

Official Google Response: Microsoft's Bid On Yahoo! "Hostile"
As the news about Microsoft's offer to purchase Yahoo! went around, the search engine industry was inundated with the buzz and speculations.
Though pronouncing the bid from the Redmond giant as unsolicited, Yahoo! is taking the offer seriously and formally evaluating the proposal. "…the Board of Directors will evaluate this proposal carefully and promptly in the context of Yahoo!'s strategic plans and pursue the best course of action to maximize long-term value for shareholders." came the official response from Yahoo!
While Yahoo! Evaluates the proposal, Google expectedly appears to be unnerved by this unprecedented move from Microsoft. It has gone ahead to term the bid from Microsoft as hostile, though it begs the question for who?
Google response points to the "The openness of the Internet" being at stake and that's what enabled Google and Yahoo! to be born and established. "It's about preserving the underlying principles of the Internet: openness and innovation."
Google expresses its fears about Microsoft repeating the monopolistic maneuvers of the past, "Could Microsoft now attempt to exert the same sort of inappropriate and illegal influence over the Internet that it did with the PC? While the Internet rewards competitive innovation, Microsoft has frequently sought to establish proprietary monopolies — and then leverage its dominance into new, adjacent markets."
A couple other concerns by Googl include, "Could the acquisition of Yahoo! allow Microsoft — despite its legacy of serious legal and regulatory offenses — to extend unfair practices from browsers and operating systems to the Internet?" Further, "Could a combination of the two take advantage of a PC software monopoly to unfairly limit the ability of consumers to freely access competitors' email, IM, and web-based services?"
The questions Google thinks need to be considered by policymakers and customers. Apart from the societal reasons, it appears that Google has fears of its own to oppose the bid, amidst its Q4 performance not quite meeting the expectations of the Wall Street.

So we'll roll it out to existing licensees and then start opening up. I think [Epic VP] Mark Rein has a big plan for how they're going to roll it out and make sure everybody's using it."

In the late 1870s, individuals living a couple miles south of Lake Jesup needed an easily accessible post office in the Florida back country. Andrew Aulin, an early settler and shop-owner, decided to file paperwork for a post office; in his first site location report he needed a unique name, one that no other post office in Florida had.[5] Aulin liked having a Spanish name, "to go with the Spanish name of the state," and decided to name his post office location Oviedo after the city of Oviedo in northern Spain (the capital city of the Principality of Asturias) and the University of Oviedo.[5] Some say he visited the University, others say he just liked the sound, most agree he likely pronounced it "Oh-vee-Ay-Doh" rather than the Americanized way of "Oh-VEE-doh."
Oviedo is located at 28°40′13″N 81°12′30.5″W / 28.67028°N 81.208472°W.[6]

Oviedo is located about 20 minutes from downtown Orlando, Fla. by highway (SR 417 and SR 408). The Econlockhatchee River runs through the east part of the city, and a tributary, the Little Econlockhatchee River, runs through the southern part of the city.

The Oviedo Voice has been servicing Oviedo for 23 years. The Oviedo Citizen is an online publication that has been covering Oviedo news since August 2008.
National publications[edit]
Oviedo was voted #100 in CNN Money Magazine's 100 Best Places to Live 2009.
Oviedo was listed as one of the Top 10 Towns for Families in Family Circle's August 2011 issue.[9]
Oviedo was voted Best Places to Raise Kids in Florida in Businessweek for 2013.[10]
Oviedo Hospital and developments[edit]
The city of Oviedo is currently planning a brand new downtown development just south of the current "old downtown" along Oviedo Blvd. The new town center will be a mixed-use development including town homes, single family living, apartment homes, restaurants, retail, and a planned amphitheater and Veterans Tribute. The Oviedo on the Park development is under construction having an official ground breaking ceremony in 2013.
A new Emergency Room (ER) hospital, called Oviedo ER, was completed in 2014. Oviedo ER is a department of Central Florida Regional Hospital.[11] The Oviedo ER is located on the corner of Red Bug Lake Road and West Broadway.
BJ's Restaurant & Brewery[12] opened across from the Oviedo Mall in August 2014.
A Target, YMCA, Little League, bowling center, nature nursery, and a new Aquatics Center are located in Oviedo.
Oviedo is also home to numerous developments including the established Whispering Woods, Aloma Woods, Remington Park, Carillon, Little Creek, Sanctuary, Kingsbridge, Riverside, Riverwind Apartments, Twin Rivers, and Bear Creek. It also has new subdivisions including the Oviedo Forest, Providence, Clayton's Crossing, Stratford Green, the Trails, and Live Oak Reserve.
Part of Oviedo's southern charm is the population of chickens that roam the downtown area. There are so many of them roaming the area that traffic often stops as they cross the roads. The chickens have been featured on Oviedo T-shirts and coffee mugs and a poster commemorating one of Oviedo's yearly festivals, "A Taste of Oviedo."
Contrary to what some believe, there are no specific laws or statutes surrounding the chickens, neither for their protection nor for their removal - the latter being something some residents would like to see due to the danger they pose with traffic in the congested town center. For others, however, the chickens add an element of fun.
There are City Ordinances that protect birds in the City Limits, the entire city is designated a bird sanctuary. Chickens are afforded the courtesy of protection under the code.[13]
The chickens were also the subject of a short documentary that was part of the Florida Film Festival 2009.[14]
Weather events[edit]
Hurricane season of 2004[edit]
In August 2004, the northwestern side of Hurricane Charley passed directly over Oviedo while still a Category 2 storm.[15] More than half the city as well as much of the surrounding unincorporated areas had no power for 5 to 7 days. School was not in session county-wide for one full school week. The damages ranged from toppled oaks to destroyed homes. The worst damage was in Palm Valley, a mobile home retirement community less than a mile from UCF. Charley's damage in Oviedo is considered to be the worst in Seminole County history. Barely a month later, Hurricanes Frances and Jeanne further battered the area resulting in additional damage and power outages, but they did not reach the level of Charley's fury.
Tropical Storm Fay[edit]
Tropical Storm Fay hung over Oviedo for days during 2008 with high winds, heavy rains, and flooded roads.

Note: This is part of a multi-part series on how JCPL adds value to the community.
One of the little known facts about Jefferson County Public Library (JCPL) is that our reach extends well beyond our ten libraries. We also deliver important outreach services via our Bookmobile.
Library access for many Jeffco residents is limited by location, access to transportation and library hours. The Bookmobile allows us to extend our services outside of our physical buildings; in fact, the bookmobile receives over 10,000 visits and checks out over 40,000 items annually.
We're grateful to be able to offer these services, and our patrons are grateful, too. Here's a comment we received from one of our Senior Bookmobile patrons: "My name is Pam Bliss. I am a Senior (87 years old). Bless Jefferson County Public Library. The Bookmobile service at Willow Glen Complex is my lifeline to books. With no transportation, or the ability to walk in winter conditions, it is greatly appreciated!"
We're quietly providing value person by person, in and out of libraries, every day. That's what library service is all about.
Every now and again, we run into someone who thinks that the Internet has made libraries obsolete. This is one of the great urban myths of our time!
If you're not a regular library user, you may not see the value of libraries. We see it on a daily basis. Jeffco residents access our services millions of times every year to teach their children how to read, support educational and career development objectives, look for work, build their businesses, engage with current events and stay engaged through our Senior outreach services.
In April, the Pew Research Center published a study entitled "Libraries at the Crossroads" that documents the value of libraries. Among other things, the study found that:
As John F. Kennedy said, "The great enemy of truth is very often not the lie, deliberate, contrived and dishonest, but the myth, persistent, persuasive and unrealistic."
If you've heard this urban myth and wonder about the future of libraries, we'd like to highlight some truths about JCPL. Over the next few weeks, I plan to showcase some of our high-value services (and impacts) and bust this particular myth, once and for all.
"The library is central to our free society. It is a critical element in the free exchange of information at the heart of our democracy."
This quote, from Vartan Gregorian, president of the Carnegie Corporation, is one of my favorites.
Libraries have long been staunch supporters of the democratic process. For years, all JCPL libraries have put out election tables where Jeffco residents can find information about candidates and issues. Anyone can place election materials on the tables, and all are invited to do so.
Election tables went up this week. If you're looking for information on the Nov. election, be sure to check them out!
Most Jeffco residents appreciate the library's role in promoting literacy and learning, but few are aware of the library's impact on economic development. In fact, we're a valuable and often overlooked weapon in the economic development arsenal.
Jefferson County Public Library supports economic development by:
• Supporting early literacy and education;• Contributing to a technologically literate workforce;• Providing critical resources for job seekers;• Supporting local businesses and startups;• Anchoring commercial developments and redevelopments; and• Contributing to a community's quality of life.
We've just completed a white paper that documents our contributions. You can access it here.
If you'd like to be updated on economic development programs and resources, join our economic development mailing list.
AT JCPL, we benchmark our performance against libraries like ours in communities like ours. It's an important part of putting our performance into perspective.
When folks enter our libraries, they generally have a positive experience. Our staff are trained and dedicated to providing excellent customer service, regardless of the challenges we may be facing behind the scenes.
Last week I talked about our ongoing budget challenges. The worst part of our financial challenge is the fact that years of operating on a shoestring have had a major impact on our performance -- especially when you compare us to our library peers.
Most people don't see this. When we polled Jeffco residents, we learned that:• a majority of those polled believe we're doing a good job;• they believe our customer service is great; and• a majority have no awareness of our budget challenges.
The benchmarking data tells a different story.
We've been operating in survival mode for so long, our service has declined to dangerously low levels. Other metro area public libraries are able to offer access to better technology, including better software programs, laptops for check-out, mobile applications and more. Here, we struggle to provide basic services. We're providing access to Microsoft Office 7, while others have moved on to Microsoft Office 13; our public access computers are running on Windows 7, while others are running on Windows 10 or 12; and the number of public access computers we provide to Jeffco residents places us in the bottom quartile of performance.
Sadly, JCPL is performing at or below the 25th percentile in other key performance measures as well, including:• hours open;• materials per capita;• eBooks per 1,000 people served;• square footage per capita; and • full time equivalents (FTEs) per 1,000 people served.
Because we're open so few hours, we also rank in the bottom quartile for the number of early literacy storytimes we're able to offer, the number of reference transactions (per capita) we're able to process, and the number of Jeffco residents who participate in Summer Reading.
When we shared this data with community leaders, we heard the words "troubling", "appalling" and "embarrassing".
I have my own word for it: tragic.
Going forward, we need sufficient financial resources to be able to deliver a more responsible level of service, and we look forward to the day when we can give Jeffco residents the level of services they need and deserve.
Can you believe that the year is almost half over?
We've been so busy, I've barely had time to breathe, much less maintain a robust blog calendar. But now, with summer finally here, we all have a little time to catch up.
You can catch up with us, too!
We've posted the following documents on our web site:
You can access them here. They provide a good snapshot of where we are.
We have a million great things going on, with more to come... and I look forward to sharing it all with you!
Amidst the litter of wrapping paper and ribbon last week, I found a wonderful Christmas present. I opened my email to find this photo:
It's a picture of Bookmobile Patron Ruth Gartrell, who happened to be our 10,000th bookmobile visitor this year. Rich Allen, our bookmobile supervisor, surprised Ruth with balloons and flowers to celebrate this milestone. Needless to say, it was a happy day for all involved.
Even more heart-warming are the trends we're seeing in bookmobile use. The number of bookmobile visitors has increased every year for the past eight, despite the fact that we downsized that business unit in late 2010. This is the first time we've reached the 10,000-visitor milestone in a single year.
It's a testament to Rich (and all of the other library employees) who work within significant budgetary constraints, and yet provide exceptional library services year after year.
That, my friends, is the best Christmas present ever, and a wonderful way to start off the new year!
The Conifer Recreation Coalition is seeking resident input on recreational opportunities in the Conifer area, and we wouldn't want them to forget the Library!
If you'd like to weigh in on the kinds of facilities and activities you'd like to see, take the survey today. It closes on Dec. 15, so don't delay.
One of the Library's strategic priorities is to make literacy tools available to everyone in the County (and especially to children from birth to 5 and their caregivers). We know that children who enter school ready to read tend to perform better in school, have higher graduation rates and achieve more success in life than children who don't. We'd like to see every child in Jefferson County begin kindergarten with the basic skills they need to be ready to read.
We offer robust literacy tools to children and their caregivers through Library Storytimes, our Traveling Children's Library, and specialized computer programs in the children's areas in our Libraries. Now, we're working to extend those services through focused outreach and partnerships.
Here's an example. Recently, we partnered with Jefferson County Human Services to help them create a "Read to Your Kids" book corner in Room 110 of the Human Services Building. (Room 110 is where citizens come to complete paperwork for assistance, and they often bring children with them.) We're providing posters and brochures with tips for parents on how to help their children learn to read, as well as fliers advertising our Storytimes.
This is a perfect opportunity to deliver information about the importance of reading to children to at-risk families in Jeffco. It gives the children something to do while their parents wait for appointments, and it gives parents concrete ideas of how to help their children.
Here are before and after photos of the project:
Thanks to Jeffco Human Services for the opportunity to extend our services to families in need!
Recently, JCPL partnered with Warren Tech High School on an exciting project. Twelve students from a video production class were given a challenge: they had one day to script, film, edit and produce a short video promoting libraries. We had the pleasure of hosting the filming at the Belmar Library, where six teams of students worked their creative magic.
The films were then entered in a statewide video contest sponsored by the Colorado State Library and the Collaborative Summer Library Program. They'll be competing with 21 entries from around the state. Films will be judged by a panel of judges from several public libraries around the state, the State Library, and Rocky Mountain PBS. Winners will be announced on May 7, and the winning team will receive $275. We're keeping our fingers crossed for the Warren Tech teams!
We are pleased and proud to be helping local students prepare for 21st century careers, and we are happy to showcase their efforts.
