Update on the coupons and leftover prizes from SRP! ---

Hello team,

Summer is officially over! Time to send back any leftover Scholastic prize books you have. Please send them to Central Programming: ATTN: Tiffany Wise so that we can have them ready for next year.

If you have certificates left over, you should save them for the luchador mask craft (or any other cardstock-requiring craft you might want to do in the future).

If you have any other coupons left over, please shred them!

Have a great day!

Sara Pope, MLS

P. S. 

Leftover Raising Cane's cards need to go back as well, according to an email from Jennifer Schwartz dated 08/13/15. 
Hello,

Wanted to updated everyone that YES Prep does have early dismissal EVERY Wednesday. I could not get an accurate confirmation as to what time this was for the Fifth Ward Branch, but I will try to contact them directly tomorrow to find out. I believe the students get out at 12:30 though. So do not be alarmed if you see students coming in on Wednesdays with YES Prep attire on before the curfew lifts.

Tuttle Backroom

I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for all their hard work getting the Tuttle backroom in shape.

We were able to get rid of a lot of the detritus that accumulates over time in a library.  Additionally, IT has already come out and picked up a lot of the outdated technology that was filling the back shelves.

I have contacted other managers in the system to see if they need any of our 100s of bookends.

If you find anything else that you don't recognize, please let me know so I can update our salvage forms and hopefully get it taken away.

Thanks!
Brandon
