Subject: [irls] DSL connections and EBSCO
This is just for your information in case a library wants to set up ip identification and they have DSL connection. The situation has already come up.
Libraries that have DSL connections have a DHCP range of addresses rather than server IP addresses. These addresses are dynamic in that they always change when the computer is turned off. This dynamic range is for the entire community rather than just for the library. Some libraries do have a static address (for them only) if they pay more each month. Libraries with automated systems online would have a static address. In order for the library with dynamic DHCP range of addresses to be able to have direct connect to EBSCO in the library, they would need to get this dynamic range from the ISP. I did talk to one ISP and explain what we were doing and why we needed the range. He had no problem with giving me the range for one particular library (community). This also means that anyone in the community that has DSL can also access from their home EBSCO with a direct connect rather than password. Of course, this was just one ISP and particular results with individual vendors may vary. Let me know if particular problems occur.
CONSORTIA - CIPA/NCIPA:
TO: Consortia Members
FROM: Ken Davenport - Consortia Director
Subject CIPA/NCIPA
date: June 20, 2002
NOTE: The following material is on the leading edge of what we think we know about how the FCC/USAC/SLD & everyone else involved will be thinking and doing regarding the court rulings on CIPA/NCIPA.
See: http://www.paed.uscourts.gov/documents/opinions/02D0415P.HTM
Further information and announcements at: http://www.ala.org/cipa/
IF you have had a public meeting [Library Board Meeting with CIPA/NCIPA or Internet Safety Policy or very similar wording] in which the agenda listed the subject and in which the public could comment you have met the "public meeting" requirement. You should be prepared to document this with a copy of the posed agenda and the minutes of the meeting.
The policies & procedures should be appended to, included in, or used to replace your current Internet Policy and/or Acceptable Use Policy. You may integrate this in anyway you wish the simplest in most cases is as a procedure which expands upon and explains your current policies. You may modify this material in any way that works for your needs but we suggest that if you modify the material in italics you do so with the advice of someone familiar with the CIPA/NCIPA law, rules and regulations.
If your word processor allows "find & replace" you can look for Anytown and replace it with your library name e.g. Anytown Public Library - replace Anytown with ABC - ABC Public Library.

FEEDBACK:
Survey: Should LSA's go to a "Fee for Service" Model?
BACKGROUND - In most other places the state/regional agency(s) equal of the Iowa Library Service Areas are called System Libraries or Regional Systems or some such. Nearly all of them operate on a membership/fee for service basis.
As all of you are well aware the last round of budget cuts have finally pushed the LSA's up to the wall, the next round ....
REPLIES - It would appear that the bulk of you think a fee for Service Model is a good idea, in fact I received no replies against it and several ranging from luke warm to very positive, you have one more chance to speak up on this topic.
CHANGES: Updates – Addresses & such - None this week
END PLATE: For those not to busy for a bit of foolishness
A young woman wasn't feeling well, and asked one her co-workers to recommend a physician. "I know a great one in the city, but he is very expensive. Five hundred dollars for the first visit, and one hundred dollars for each one after that."
The woman went to the doctor's office and, trying to save a little money, cheerily announced. "I'm back!"
Not fooled for a second, the doctor quickly examined her and said, "Very good, just continue the treatment I prescribed on your last visit."
******
One evening after dinner, a five-year-old boy noticed that his mother had gone out and he asked, "Where did mommy go?"
In answer to his questions, his dad was told him, "Mommy is at a Tupperware party."
This explanation satisfied him for only a moment. Puzzled, he asked, "What's a Tupperware party, Dad?"
The man had always given his son honest answers, so he figured a simple explanation would be the best approach.
"Well, son," he said, "at a Tupperware party, a bunch of ladies sit around and sell plastic bowls to each other."
He nodded, indicating that he understood this curious pastime. Then he burst into laughter. "Come on, Dad," he said. "What is it really?"
