A “Day of Thanksgiving” has been proclaimed to celebrate another year of employment among good friends;it’s the Annual MULSA Thanksgiving Feast.
When: Thursday, November 19th, 2009
Time: 11:30 AM to 2:00 PM
Where: Ellis Library’s Staff Lounge
Why: Free food! Bring yourself and a side dish or desert to share (if you can).
The Green Committee wants you to remember “save the planet”, please bring your own table service but it will be provided if you forget.
Once again, MULSA is having a contest to see who can donate the most to our two favorite groups: Missouri Central Food Bank & 2nd Chance (a no-kill animal shelter). Make it a team effort & get a group together to see who can bring in the most donations (food &/or money). The first and second place groups will receive their choice of a snack platter or breakfast bagels.
Catering by Jack’s Gourmet. Sponsored and organized by the MU Libraries Staff Association.
Social Chair 09/10 – Ruthe Morse

Some recent postings at the MULSA blog The Muse:
Don’t foget about MUSE, the MU Libraries Staff Association M(ULSA) blog. Here are some recent highlights:
Congratulations to April’s Staff Spotlight winners: Kate Anderson and Ryan Bish! Read more about them on the MUSE blog.
Congratulations to Karen Witt & Hunter Kevil, our Staff Spotlight features for March! Read about Karen and Hunter on the MUSE blog.
February’s Staff Spotlight recipients were Adam Banning (LTS) and Cathy Menzel (Physical Processing). Read a profile on each of these staff members on the MUSEblog.
This month the MULSA Board has initiated the Staff Spotlight Award, meant to recognize our co-workers for all they do to promote the mission and goals of MU Libraries—just by doing their jobs.
Recipients names will be drawn randomly on a monthly basis (one Ellis, one branch). If your name is drawn you will be contacted for permission to recognize you in this way. Participate as much or as little as you are comfortable with.
Our inaugural recipients for the monthly Staff Spotlight Award are: Nina Johnson and Ruth Feldkamp.
Nina Johnson works in the Columbia Missourian Newspaper Library, and has worked for MU Libraries since August 1997.
Ruth Feldkamp works at Ellis Library in the Physical Processing & Preservation Unit. She began working for MU Libraries as a student in 2005, then became full-time staff in 2007.
To read more about either or both of our Spotlight Award recipients, see the article in the MUSEblog at http://mulibraries.missouri.edu/muse.
