Feeling stressed? You're not alone! Most of us are doing more with less at work and at home while juggling the ever-increasing expectations of bosses, co-workers, family members, and friends.  We are too busy to eat right, rarely get enough sleep, and almost never take time just for ourselves. It is no wonder that we are all getting crabbier. In this program you will learn to identify the major stressors in your life and get some practical tips on how to manage those stressors.  This light-hearted look at stress-busters is guaranteed to cheer you up!

Regional Public Library Systems

Regional Library Systems offer traditional materials and electronic information technology to almost every Minnesota community.  Regional systems have 50 years of successful experience supporting the work of local libraries.

Regional systems create maximum efficiencies among public libraries.  By working together, Minnesota's libraries bring all of these services to every resident.  Even the smallest libraries in Minnesota's systems have access to the wide range of materials and electronic services.

The twelve systems blanket the state.  All twelve regions work closely together with the state library agency to provide smoothly integrated resources.
