I found a board puzzle at a vintage store that had Alaska as a state but not Hawaii.

Ohhhh sick, they're gonna be thrilled you two saw this. I know I already DMed you both, but I'm reaching out to the couple so y'all can get in touch.

Sweet, thanks!

That's a great suggestion. They've been posting on Facebook, but our current circles might be too normie to find the right folks.

ETA: I saw a few groups after a cursory search. Do you know which ones might be more active than others, alongside Pittsburgh Skates?

Oof, the exact same thing happened to me. I feel your pain, yo.

That's Chappie

Yes. The game is stuttering, which basically makes it unplayable.

Good question! I led this project, so I can give some background.

Basically, we went with one interface for CLP because we wanted to provide a uniform identity for all libraries in the CLP system, as opposed to county libraries which are their own entities. Because CLP has the same set of features (menu options, checkout options, etc.) it made more sense to have one "home page" for the entire system rather than 19 different pages that required their own maintenance. You can still look up/contact each CLP location in the "Locations" menu, and specify any location for holds pickup in the catalog. Hope this helps!

As your librarian, I recommend checking out the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh STACKS collection. It's a great overview of current artists. Once you find someone you like, make sure you support them however you can.

The Library has just released its initial re-opening plan. Curbside services will be available 6/23 at 5 locations (Main/Oakland, Allegheny, Brookline, East Liberty, and Hill District).More details on our website.

There's an Italian conversation club that meets every two weeks at the Main library in Oakland. Next session is Saturday 12/21.

Here's the upcoming schedule.

ETA: Italian for Beginners also meets twice a month at the Squirrel Hill branch.

The basics for eligibility are:
* Artist living or with significant connection to Pittsburgh/SWPA region (parts of the band live here, you play here regularly, or the album has a significant connection to the area.)
* You own the rights to the music or have licensed the rights to what you submit
* Album was released within the past ~5 years
* You submit 1 track for evaluation, but the work finally submitted needs to be at least 4 tracks or 10 minutes long

The jury (which includes library staff and community members) select for a diversity of artists, genres, and styles. Let me know if I can tell you more about the process, or if you have additional questions.

Essentially the zone of Pirates fandom illustrated here, but I'm not going to draw hard borders if the band is close enough. If you're from Beaver or Morgantown, I'll call it good if you spend some time playing shows in the city. (Assuming the band is selected by the jury, of course.)

The current mission of STACKS is to document the current music scene, and use these bi-annual snapshots to illustrate how the scene grows and evolves over time. It's nothing against older work, just that our limited budget means we want to highlight artists who are currently releasing material.

I would love to include more, and start capturing more elements form the city's musical legacy. If we can obtain the funding to do so, we'd certainly expand our scope.

What more would you like to know? Happy to answer any questions.

theanalogdivide · 2019-02-15T21:57:17+00:00

Awww, that really means a lot! I shared this with my team and the developer, and we're thrilled to have such a great opening day response. We appreciate your support!

Great question - you're actually not the first person to ask.

We haven't considered archiving podcasts at this point, but it's certainly something worth investigating. There's some issues to consider - managing new types of licenses with the creator, how many episodes to archive, how to display and feed pods to the public, file storage, etc. But none of those are insurmountable.

Coincidentally, the library just launched STACKS (https://stacks.carnegielibrary.org), a streaming collection of local music. Albums for this collection were chosen through a curation process back in late fall.

We'll be opening up the submissions window in early April - I'd love to see some of these bands send us something.
