		<description><![CDATA[I know many Libraries have been trying out roving and making it part of their excellent service model. Here&#8217;s a good idea I came across on the Central New Jersey Library webpage. I love this  &#8221;pro-active&#8221; announcement, featured in their &#8220;Local Events&#8221; section, which alerts patrons to their upcoming roving service. It is great for patrons [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently I was looking into &#8220;non-Dewey&#8221; systems of Library material classification, and there are many laudable efforts being tried at various Library Systems. Word based or category based classification systems encourage and support browsing and self service for Library patrons, and represent a truly pro-active approach to guided self-service.
