no excuses for why what why we do or say what we do whatever i write i will jump right into it because this is going to be kind of a different kind of program for us because we're only doing one this month right as we have a lot of things going on that we're going to talk about yes all right should we spin the world first let's look at the start of our first segment which is library news from around the globe with this one they are in love to tell some kind of random thing about the library pretty random always usually very random to go with that i forget that one cheat i might have forgotten the one sheet that i was going to ok but that's ok i know what i'm doing sometimes ok so what we are celebrating we're going to be celebrating in the month of september what is that like the third week of september yeah the banned books book week and what i had printed out that i didn't bring nor did i wear my contacts so we're really having a good day is about banned books and the problem with the issue and we talked about this i think last year to the issue of you know free speech and free you know what our constitution stands for and our jobs as librarians and offering especially it's different in a public library than a school library i think because the school library gets more has more issues with not be with with books that parents get involved in school boards and teachers and a lot more of the public at involved about saying i don't feel like that's appropriate for my child you know or my you know to not to have been there are companies that get banned from the school and honestly give them a public library but they do get banned from schools right exactly exactly so what i thought today and you know what maybe i'll go ahead and do a couple of them now i was going to do some when we were talking when we start talking about being book week but because every time that we do this and we talk about it if and when i go over the list again of children's books that were banned i i'm just like flabbergasted i go ok really and i have to look up the reason why again yes because i'm like now what was the reason  as a as an example green eggs and ham by dr seuss would have been on the banned book well this is my favorite dr says i love it i love i love love just because it's so funny and i love reading it and acting it out and everything yeah ok what could possibly be in here that would make this a fan book do you remember i don't remember this one being less some excited to hear it you have to say well it is on the list miss shannon it is american author dr seuss has become a household name and you'd be hard pressed to find a library or bookstore that does not carry at least one of its forty six children's books green eggs and ham is a poke about trying new things and go against the status quo ok here goes it was actually here is the country that it was banned in evidently china did not wish to expand its citizens pallets and sixty five the people's republic of china began this poetic classic claiming it sported marxist and homosexual ideas i was trying to think about it and i'm like where did we get that i must be reading a different volume or something somewhere i kind of missed that or i'm just i don't know apparently the chinese government feared that the ham and green eggs and ham represented some sort of sexual imagery so that's why i missed it i was kind of looking at i was looking at green ham as green seuss's books in mandarin so yeah i don't know that one are not that much to change but you know what speaking of it sam i am there it is the culprit it's the green hand what do you see that i don't see  thing this is a china it was not banned in the united states but it's interesting on different countries we've talked about different like holidays and writings that you know how the countries handle them don't think our cultures perceive right so in china they do not like green eggs and ok all right so well we'll save it at that and we'll talk more when we get to ok which i realize i didn't write on our list but so just don't forget so i will say you know what and no you may not read ball pause ok so i have season tickets that the two people that have the season see that the seats beside me season ticket holders her name is melissa really nice woman and out of the blue she said you know knows you know my story we've known each other in she said do you guys do that thing with dogs and reading just was little so bizarre and i looked at her and i said whoa yeah we do i said we call it pause for eating and that we do it with you know the therapy dogs that come in and the kids read and you know what a wonderful experience it is i said because you know the kids become regulars they want to sign up every month the staff it's held one month or one saturday a month and it's staff favorite saturday to work you know we have to work saturdays merino that's our favorite saturday and she proceeded to tell me that they have a golden lab and they she just went through the training to become a therapy dog wonderful and you know she was telling me you know all about the training and everything and now wants to get the dog registered so that she could you know participate in something like there is right and you know and she's like well why do you only do it once a month they said because it's a special event you know and you know we would have enough because she asked if we had enough dogs as though you know we have plenty of dogs that's not the issue it's just making it a special event so that when they come you know to look forward to yeah exactly and not just have a regular so having said that she just brought that up we do have that coming and it's the  first saturday no second or saturday second saturday of every month from ten am until eleven twenty and they call or stop by and pick a twenty minute little slot and yeah come and read to the dogs you know gives kids confidence to sit there and read because dogs are non judgment oh yes if you are afraid of dogs it's good for them to even just sit there and know that they're so well trained and harmless and you know nurses are amazing and should we start singing ok anyways so in september we are having a little bit of a remodeling thing going on we're getting all new carpeting in the entire you services department and because of that we had to cancel or reschedule the majority of our september programming minus positive reading because it's actually going to start monday afterwards so we will be able to do pause we have a couple or things will salute still going to have but for the most part everything is not going to be happening for the weeks between september tenth and september twenty fourth through our rights attorney for the actually going to resume program so yes that will be the first yeah we were originally start our fall programs on the tenth and we both we bought back two weeks so if you sign up for the fall programs in the summer please you know just keep in mind we had to move things so we're now going to be starting on the twenty fourth yep so with all new carpet in all new cars it's going to be really nice one of the moms was talking the other day and she said wow you know you're you know delaying everything you know we're really just for the fall programs and said oh you know when's the carpeting you know what's going on with that trying to fill or in and as excited you know one of our reg ehlers and as excited as she is about the programming and getting it up and going and going back she was so understanding and thrilled for us that earlier at the beginning of the summer the whole department was painted right so it is well you know harriet so finally the carpet will be down on the be able to fix the walls and that the things that weren't quite done because they needed to wait for the carpeting so awesome i'm really excited but it will be a major job so anyone that is watching us right now that would like some volunteer hours please give u guess i guess you could say that we are celebrating international dott day and even though that that falls into that falls it that's going to be thank you the first week of that was supposed to be our first week of programming and we were going to do all this stuff to me ok you know what i'm going to keep this like all day i'm going to go back to the library you know me i will definitely do that so that they look at me and say all peter reynolds and it is such a feel good story feel good message yeah you know where it's you know it's about believing in yourself and knowing that you can do something even while it's going to be hard to take me seriously as well i can see a little bit more hard to the through this oversight to look more like a unicorn are all right but it's all right you know sometimes like when you were arranged things you know you need to have i'm just not totally symmetrical funks way ok what do you know way apparently you know enough to make me functionally say i master color scheme true who knew i was going yeah well so anyway come to the library we're still going to have fun with dot day in the lobby making things and doing things that make you feel good about yourself and yes adults and children i mean it was going to be children's programming but we involve the adults because we have our dot day shirts on because it's all about feeling good in knowing what makes us special guest so that's going to be the week of september tenth through the fifteenth i think they don't make us have to sing and to fifteen i believe yeah i think it's something like that i probably have the week yeah right yeah it's just says yes september fifteenth and then we usually we'll see what happens with you know we pop untaught is an evening yes program where we are hoping that the dads were coming off the pops will come and bring yeah i think that yeah and it's early enough to kid the children aren't sleeping yet right have a little bit we do we get requests for things in the evenings and sometimes it's hard like people want to specially working parents they might want to get there and we've tried different things and some things have worked and some things that we have not so much but i think this could you know this is i think this is going to be fun and this is with miss patty who already does our baby babies in the mother all different local animal who's ations from throughout the community so shelters and vets and trainers and all kinds of different things service dogs and they're going to be coming in for a fair type supply donation middle class off to the shelters that are present so yes of temper twenty ninth from eleven till two so please join us for the fair just thinking is so we could ask him again if he wants to do that i'd like to yeah we're talking and it's all good yeah we could ask him that and i just have like this really quick comment since i just took a sip of did you take a sip of it yet one or two did you or do you think well sunny days now i'm nervous because a lot  the ninety's circa that i've had sonny but i feel like that's when it was ok well i just pretended like i do commercials in the ninety's i mean i need to commercial since then so i feel like maybe this is what it produced when they do have like  like you know we get the coolest books and things i was going to watercolor but we have these yeah and i always forget to use you know pull out something else i mean no i feel like a kid you know i've got my you know when you're going back to haven't yet you just kind of paint asier as you're talking and as you feel a little happy tree happy happy dot i think i will do something anyway here's how i got my inspiration for this it's called  so i was looking through and it gives you all kinds of really fun art lab ideas for little kids and the first one that i'm going to try i've only got one scheduled so far to see how it goes is about painting and they show in here as an example for that art form different ways to paint so we're going to do them probably going to two or three different ways for the kids to paint and there's and there's other things you know to you know fun with tinfoil and all kinds of you know so we'll see how it goes and we'll be able to do know now and then for some fun little art lab so that was so i can't take total i mean i can take credit that like you said we we get inspired by books and so this is but i'm not going to turn anybody away i mean if it is if the little kids are in high school and feel like they need to be there and have fun and company to find their inner inner artist that's beautiful and isn't it amazing i think we should hang in the fringe  the library where you know what i was really we should you know what i was really going to do really ok so i brought extra pieces of paper room so i was going to keep drawing like painting you but then actually have a picture of  that's my version of something i think it's beautiful yeah i think it's the dot that makes everything thank you for these by the way again ok so lavatory kit little kids is on under my glasses on the twenty fourth six thirty now they're getting program so  so i brought in john i have one quick question about that do you think that when you do your display and you put like banned books you think that's more in tight more enticing for people to want to read it was banned they need to know why  popularity of the television series and yak i'm going top what it's about because most of our viewers are going to know what this one is about and why it may or may not have been and so that one the number two is the absolute true story of a part time indian which we actually shel or she is one of our most popular authors whose counseling going out she's a graphic novelist and this book was challenge because it includes characters and was considered web what a bad book to read e b white that was challenged it was challenge cause england banned charlotte's web for fear that the pig wilbur might be offensive to muslims students bizarre so it was banned in russia china turkey even england which was its home turf or where it was from no harriet the spy no winnie the pooh no green eggs and ham no yours suit top was laying there and she's laying and they don't she was being topless and they're like you had first of all have to really search for you know i never would have found it i've tried because i've seen because then they own up like people did find it but i never when they figured it out we've got to wrap it up
