Library Reaching Out With New Computer Programs In order to further the education and to assist young adults in achieving higher goals in life, the St. Joseph County Public Library has taken a major step in the provision of computer services to aid students in the choice of reading materials. Special Power Mac computers have been installed at four of the branch libraries which are equipped with a software program known as Bookwhiz. This program will enable the young adults to identify and better use the Young Adult Collection at the Library. North Liberty Branch is one of the four branches equipped with the Bookwhiz program, located at 105 W. Center St. in North Liberty. Coordinator of Extension Services and Project Director Larry Ostrowski, is excited about this new service. “Our current on-line catalog is sufficient if the young reader already has an author or title they are interested in reading but it was never designed to help with the selection of materials by specific subject interests.” The Bookwhiz program does exactly that. “A teenager can, for example, get a list of titles with short descriptions for fictional books about a single subject or a list of those that combine sports and mystery, or romance and fantasy, for example,” according to Ostrowski. The database of the program contains 2500 listings of good books for kids, including almost 1000 short descriptions. The Bookwhiz program also responds to the fact atht many teens, while needed assistance with selection of reading material, are often reluctant to ask for help. Bookwhiz will solve this problem for them. Only minimal assistance is needed as the program is very user-friendly. The Bookwhiz software is only a part of the library’s effort to reach out to the community through the branches with computer technology. Until recently only the Main Library and Francis Branch had microcomputers for the computercrazed young adult crowd. This software will encourage students to read and to use the opportunity to experiment with other exciting feature programs found on the computers. In fact, the Library has chosen state-of-the-art PowerMac's, wiD provide young adults access to the internet and the information superhighway, in addition Bookwhiz, at their local branch. In addition to the computers, Mr. Oslowski plans to visit English classes st three middles schools in the South Bend Community School Corporation and Urey Middle School in the John Glenn School Corporation to promote the program. He plans to present approximately 5 mini-talks about books in the program and demonstrate the cunplidty of operating the program.” The Bookwhiz sofeware program and the Power Mac computers were made possible by a 516,000 grant through the Library Services and Construction Act Title 1.
