LL2.1 Staff Grand Prize
It looks like we’re going to be able to offer a Grand Prize for LL2.1. Everyone who completes all the lessons will have their name put in the drawing. As of right now this is the digital camera I’ve selected. Of course technology changes fast so it may be a different one by the time we do the drawing.
Tell Us How Great We Are
I noticed this little message at the top of my Gmail account tonight
“Share your Gmail story” I use a lot of Gmail and Google tools so I clicked on the link to see what what up and got this screen.
Seriously how great is this idea? Tell us how great we are and post the video on YouTube for everyone to see!
I am so stealing this idea for my library!
Sense of Humor
Just a reminder to myself – Never take yourself too seriously. You’ve got to have a sense of humor about yourself and what you do.

The Search for Prizes
In addition to writing “Things” for the LL2.1 program, I’m searching for prizes. Since the program is different this time I think we’ll be structuring the prizes so that for every 5 or 10 lessons completed they’ll get a small prize, with a larger prize at the end.
Smaller prizes will probably be fun things like desk toys candy, flash drive, etc. The nice thing about a small library is I know most of the staff so we can make sure they get something they’ll like or use.
I asked the staff for suggestions for the large prize last week, a couple of people suggested another MP3 player, and one a suggested a small digital camera. So far I haven’t found an affordable digital camera, but I’m leaning towards the Creative Stone Plus for the MP3 player. I’ve had really good experiences with Creative’s products and it will work with our Downloadable Audiobooks.
What do you think? Any suggestions or ideas?
