It's all about the bling here. Move on up into the 21st century! Make your library the happenin' place
for your community. Sure, it's challenging, but you're up to the challenge. So come on --
pimp your library!
Take your library to where the people are - on the cheap!
I just found a
neat article about a new program at the
Waterville Public Library in Maine. The library created a "Book Bike" that one of their circ people cycles over to the nearby recreation area. Then they set up shop at a shady picnic table for an hour or so and "check out" books -- many of them donated paperbacks -- to kids who otherwise might not come to the library. What a great way to reach out! (Hmm. Imagine if we could get the Good Humor man to check books out along with their sno-cones. Now THAT would be a huge draw for the kids.)
