MPLA Stories
Tales From Around the MPLA Region
Welcome to MPLA Stories, a place for MPLA members and libraries throughout the MPLA region to share stories about themselves, their libraries, etc. It really came about because Judy Zelenski, MPLA Newsletter Editor, had too many news stories to fit within the space limitations of the average Newsletter issue. We thought these stories were important and interesting. We wanted to share these stories with everyone. So, we will be posting material from MPLA Newsletter Editor, Judy Zelenski (as well as from others), which might not fit in the MPLA Newsletter, due to space limitations. We want your MPLA Stories! It's a grand experiment, please let us know what you think! (MPLA Webmaster Dan Chaney Email: dan.chaney@okstate.edu, MPLA Newsletter Editor Judy Zelenski judyz@operamail.com)
