Volunteers Wanted!!!

The library is in immediate need of COFFEE SHOP ATTENDANTs for Tuesdays and Fridays.  This position requires 3 hours of time per week, from 10 AM to 1 PM and is a good slot for a schmoozer, as the coffee bar is located next to our community tables.  Duties are not overwhelming:  make coffee, prepare bagels (or our homemade english muffins), surrender various packets of carbohydrates and cans of beverage, help us keep track of supplies etc.  Please email mtverduzco [at] hotmail.com if you can help out.  Thanks!

The Oaxaca Lending Library is proud to announce our ascension into The Cloud!  We have recently changed our Library Management System to a cloud-based system hosted by Library World.  For those of you not familiar with the term, a cloud-based system is one where the data are stored on a remote server and is accessed via the internet.  For a modest subscription fee, Library World is responsible for backup and maintenance of all the programs.  What this means to our patrons is that they can access the OLL catalog from any computer or smartphone with internet access.
