5) "Shelf Life -- Using a Business Alliance to Create an Innovative Library Space"
Presenter: William Brahms, Branch Manager, M. Allan Vogelson Regional Branch Library, Camden County Library System

Abstract: The Camden County Library System has partnered in an experimental project by creating a library annex in a local shopping mall. The model for the space is a retail-store concept in terms of merchandising, staffing, use of space and appearance. There are no "shelves" in shelf life but lots of slatwall, spinners, librarian artwork, a children’s program area, meeting space and evening a gaming area. Once comfortable in the atmosphere, the user finds that the annex offers the full range of basic library functions.

6) "My First 365 Days As A Children's Librarian"
Presenter: Judith Lieberman, Children's Librarian, Newark Public Library

Abstract: Check out how we successfully navigated our way though the year with the support of colleagues, professional affiliations, listservs, and our personal experiences; we had one great year! Our poster will feature resources which were helpful in making this year a success.

7) "Extra! Extra! Read All About It!"
Presenters: Renee Riczker, West Orange Public Library; Maryann Ralph, West Orange Public Library; and Uma Hiremath, West Orange Public Library
