2/24/2025 - Update: MORE Catalog problems likely resolved Starting last Thursday, there were problems with some accounts not showing checked out items and some searches not returning expected results in the main MORE Catalog and app. The problems seem to be resolved now. Please use the IFLS help desk to report any ongoing issues.
Thanks to Lisa from Colfax, who immediately answered my call for content! Yay! If she can do it, so can you!
Here’s what Lisa says:
We just had “Madame Lanita” (a.k.a. Kris Winter) come to our library last night for a family program. She entertained us with a gypsy story, a song and a gypsy dance. This is our third time booking Kris….we love her! She performed for 45 minutes and really interacted will with the children. What is unique about Kris, is that she walks through our door in her Lanita character, and stays in that character role until she walks out to go home. I think that is so professional and it says a lot about her love of storytelling and her acting abilities. Price was $320.00, which included her 40-50 mileage. I highly recommend Kris.
