Item Multi-Age Programming in Story Hour(H.W. Wilson Company, 1998) Sigety, Lori Caskey; Hooten, RoannaThe Virginia M. Tutt Branch of the St. Joseph County Public Library, IN offers story hours for children. Until recently, the story hours were offered four times per week (excluding additional programming). They were divided into specific-age groups: two sessions of two to three year-olds, and two sessions of three to five year-olds. The groups met on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. To balance the sessions, one of each specific age group met on Tuesday and Wednesday.Item Open Book: A Celebration of Words(H.W. Wilson Company, 2002) Gutschenritter, Victoria; Sigety, Lori CaskeyAn open book … words on a page … lyrics … poetry … drama …plays … novels … nonfiction … dialogue … movies. These are all different forms that words take on. In these various forms words affect our thoughts, imaginations, and our lives. Libraries are receptacles for words in whichever shapes the creators choose to use. The Saint Joseph County Public Library’s Open Book Festival reaches out to the Michiana community to celebrate words with a day of activities.Item Toe Dogs, Elbow Cats, and Picture Books: Combining Literature, Love of Animals, and Theatre in the Public Library Venue(H.W. Wilson Company, 2004) Sigety, Lori CaskeyLast year, my manager and I engaged in several fun conversations about the differences between cats and dogs. Although we adore both felines and canines, she is the proud parent of a greyhound and I live with two cats. Somehow our creative sessions merged into an idea of writing a play about cats and dogs. Although the concept of canine and feline rivalry has been used many times before, we wanted to put our own twist on the idea. We wanted the show to be big, fun and silly but with a message. We also wanted kids to associate the fun program with the library.
