Lincoln Public
Library . . . Named 5 Star For 5th Straight Year
! |
America’s Star Libraries,
2012: Top-Rated Libraries
Chooses Lincoln Public
Library five years in a
row.
The only 5 Star library in
New Hampshire.
We are very
pleased to present
the
results of the fifth edition
of the Library Journal
Index of Public Library
Service (LJI), a measurement
tool that compares U.S.
public libraries on the
quantities of services they
deliver. The 2012 LJ
Index, brought to you by
Baker & Taylor’s Bibliostat
Collect and Connect, is
based on Institute of Museum
and Library Services (IMLS)
data for 2010.
This year, 262 libraries
have received Star
designations based on their
service output. Over the
five editions there have
been 1,296 Star awards
conferred upon 455 libraries
representing 44 U.S. states.
On average, 259 Star
Libraries have received
these designations per
edition (the number varies
by year owing to occasional
ties). Though a significant
number of libraries post
repeat performances,
turnover in the annual
roster of Star Libraries has
been moderate. In any given
edition, about 200 libraries
received repeat Star honors
(though not necessarily the
identical Star count), while
roughly 60 additional
libraries earned new star
designations.
THE ONLY NEW HAMPSHIRE
LIBRARY CHOSEN AS A FIVE
STAR LIBRARY 5 YEARS IN A
ROW !
An impressive
111 public libraries
received Star awards in all
five LJI editions, and 30
select libraries earned
5-Star ratings in all five
editions.
The
Lincoln Library of New
Hampshire is rated in this
category.

National
Disabled Ski Hall of Fame Comes to Loon Mountain
! |
|
Lincoln, New Hampshire, February 7,
2010—Finding a new home on the east
coast the National Disabled Ski Hall
of Fame comes to New England
Disabled Sports at Loon Mountain.
The National Disabled Ski Hall of
Fame was created by the Disabled
Sports USA and the National Sports
Center for the Disabled in Winter
Park Colorado in 1995. For the past
15 years the hall has resided at
Winter Park Ski Resort and the
Colorado Ski Museum in Vail. The
hall was created to honor
individuals who have had an
influential role in disabled sports
as well as athletes who have
excelled in disabled sports. The
hall consists of famed pictures and
biographies of the inductees as well
as examples of adaptive equipment
used for skiing. The hall honors
achievements in adaptive sports over
the last 40 years.
“Disabled Sports USA and US Paralympics
are proud to have the National Disabled Ski
Hall of Fame housed at New England Disabled
Sports at Loon Mountain and the Franconia
Notch Area.”

from benefactors such as the Flying Fifties has
a considerable impact on the ability of students
and coaches of the school to continue to improve

Some Energy Facts For The Winter ! |
|
1.
Here are some useful facts to keep in
mind: |
| |
The amount
of heat contained in a gallon of #2 fuel
oil is 139,000 BTU. |
| |
The amount
of heat contained in a gallon of
kerosene is 134,000 BTU. |
| |
The
amount of heat contained in a gallon of
propane is 91,600 BTU. |
| |
The
amount of heat contained in a
kilowatt-hour of electricity is 3,413
BTU. |
|
2.
To compare the cost of heat from a
gallon of fuel oil verses a gallon of
propane you need to multiply the cost of
the propane by 139,000/91,600 or 1.52. |
|
3.
To compare the cost of heat from a
gallon of fuel oil verses electricity
you need to divide the BTU's contained
in a gallon of fuel oil by the BTU's
contained in a kilowatt hour of
electricity then multiply by the cost of
a kilowatt hour of electricity, e.g.
143,000 / 3,413 X $0.18755 or $7.86 !
(NHEC price used.) Would you still like
to have an electric car? |
