2008 Letter to Friends of MIPCUG

Michiana PC Users Group, Inc. “MIPCUG”
P.O. Box 13
Elkhart , IN 46515

 

Dear Friend of MIPCUG,

As you may recall, in 2006 both the EPCUG Board and our membership voted in the following important change to our group’s operations:

  • Method of collecting funds needed to run the club . We now no longer collect at the door at each meeting and have decided to charge annually for membership in the club. We did this for 2 reasons.
    • The cost to rent the High Dive for meetings had increased to $120 per meeting which was more than we could afford and
    • The library where we currently meet is free but does not allow us to collect money in their facility.

Because we no longer can collect funds at the door we were forced to change to this new arrangement for soliciting funds in order for the club to survive. The following membership plan will be implemented for MIPCUG.

Annual dues will be charged at $20.00 per member. This is $13.00 lower than the $3.00 charge at the door that had been in place (11 meetings @ $3.00 per meeting)

  • If an annual family membership is desired it will cost $30.00
  • Members will have the following advantages not afforded to non members :
    • They will be eligible for all drawings and will be required to show their membership card in order to receive the item(s)
    • They will be able to join the list which will allow them to get questions and problems resolved by submitting their own specific questions via email or by following questions and responses submitted by other members via our list email system
    • They will have access to our News Letters which provide tips and explanations in layman’s terms about various PC related issues
    • They will have access to other of our web site advantages such as our library of prior News Letters, downloads of various software and fixes, etc.

You will find your membership invoice through the link below, and the upper right column. We need your support in order to continue to provide the Michiana area with a group that allows us all to meet and share ideas, information and experiences with other PC users and venders. By encouraging learning, research, product reviews, and participation in Special Interest Groups (SIGs), MIPCUG aims to help you our membership develop an increased understanding, maximum benefit, and enjoyment from the use of your PC systems.

The MIPCUG Board of Directors

developing an online library

I am just completing scanning our church library cards into Access. There are 800 entries forming an Access file of about 450 kb. I am able to download via Firefox, or open via IE, the file, so members do have complete availability to the card catalog. Unfortunately, this will require some skill to search for a particular title or subject using Access.

Is there a low cost program available that I could use? A search gave the cheapest for about $400. Or perhaps an easy tutorial for access’ search function?
