Finally, I would like to brief you on my activities during the first week of the 1999 Legislative Session. My bill dealing with falconry regulations, HB 175 passed the House and has moved to the Senate. This leg islation would require a resident to possess a certification of registration to hold a falcon and engage in the sport of falconry, Another bill I have authored, HB 182 to provide for free fishing licenses for non profit organizations, for individuals in a veterans hospital or nursing home, and for residents of youth detention centers, is up for its 3rd reading in the House. I would also like to report that once again, I have been chosen as Chairman of the bipartisan Rural Caucus made up of both House and Senate members. Unlike what some people have suggested, the Rural Caucus is still strong and active. Our first meeting of 1994 was well attended and the members are very optimistic about what will be accom plished this legislative session. As your representative, Im looking forward to hearing from you. If you are concerned about an issue or a bill, please do not hesitate to call me at 3 (office) 801 With the first week behind us, I can say the session is off to a good start.

The Eighth Commandment says so. That is the one commandment that doesnt apply to Library books. And Utah code Why the rash of ripped-of- f books? Librarians have several theories: First, people are embarrassed to check out certain books - gay fiction, or The Joy of Sex, for example so they slip them into (Theft and mutilation of Library materials are their briefcases instead. Secviolations of Utah criminal ond, right-winreligious activists try to censor materials law) doesnt apply either. g Yet religious books, including the Bible, and a Utah Pen- they find objectionable by re- moving them from the sion Fund directory, have shelves. Third, patrons are been stolen from the Salt just to lazy to return the Lake Library system. Given that books are lent free to anyone with a local address, stealing from a li- brary seems greedier than stuffing ones pockets at an buffet. And yet books disappear from libraries each year. Most popular with thieves are paperbacks. But other popular books with thieves are books on electronics, GED exam study guides, and anything with photos of teen Leonardo heartthrob DiCaprio. Its hard to stereotype, because for every rock star bio lost, there is an equal number of religious books that come up missing. Some people feel they are the only ones who would want a book. But every book has an audience. Toilet Training in Less Than a Day, which desper- ate parents sneak out regularly from libraries must not work because they never come back. Despite its title, Abbie Hoffmans hippie treatise Steal This Book sits unstolen. 1970 Nobody filches travel books, cookbooks or books on health. Nor do they usually steal best sellers. Instead book(s), get so busy they sim- ply forget, or the fine has them a little scared. (I wonder what With the KeyBank would happen if you didnt take a video back to the video store, or forget to pay your utility bill??) And fourth, some residents believe they Money Market Account, the higher your balance, the greater your market-base- d interest rate. And you can already have paid for the books through their taxes. Even the Bible. I hope they access your money anytime by ATM, by check on a limited basis, or by visit- get some good out of that one. Each Emery County Li- brary has an night book drop outside the front doors. This is to accommodate those who cant get to the Library to return their books during regu- ing any KeyCenter. To open a personal or business account, stop by any KeyCenter, or call and select option 2. The lar hours. But the best reason, I feel for the book drop, is for those who find a book that they adamantly swore they had returned and are too embarrassed to bring in person. Were just glad to have $10,000 the book back. Or if you think your fine is as big as the national debt, you can slide it in the drop, and never show your face inside the library. The Librarians (this is hard for me to say) sometimes make mistakes. And that book that we have been hounding you about is quietly sitting on the shelf, waiting for the Librarian to make a fool of herself sending Final Notices.

But by adding to our APY balances of: that mistakes kleptomaniacs us to realize happen and you arent really stealing that book, but just swipe books on tattoos and fantasy epics. They stash sex books in the library stacks so they can return and read it at their leisure. (Parents do you know what your children are reading?) They slice photos from magazines. For some reason, people dont see stealing a book from a library the same way as stealing something from a it department store. I guess of depends on your definition stealing.
