Breaking Ground in Boise

Breaking Ground in Boise

Wielding golden shovels, a dozen city and library officials broke ground June 17 for construction of a 15,000-square-foot Evergreen Plaza branch of Boise (Idaho) Public Library. The system is in a growth mode, with its first two full-service branches opening in February and March this year, Evergreen Plaza scheduled to open in 2009, and a fourth branch in southeast Boise planned to open in 2010. Evergreen Plaza is the library’s first-ever new-building project, however; the earlier branches both opened in shopping centers and the downtown library opened in a refurbished building.

MULTIMEDIA RES & SERVS

Can anyone tell me a bit about this class? I registered for it believing that it covered a variety of libraries and their media use, but after looking at the textbook, it appears it is strictly for school libraries (I'm in a public library). I plan to graduate in December, so need this class, but am wondering if I should try to find something that will have more practical applications.
