  1. Monica,

    Your inspiration idea is so great! First off, I love photography & the idea of patrons getting the chance to get their portrait taken for free. But to take it even further by doing interviews and sharing stories with their photos is really awesome. This is a fantastic way to get to know your community and neighbors, and possibly meet others with similar interests that you maybe wouldn’t have met otherwise.

    • Hi @inabookbind
      Thank you so much for your reply and kind words. I also love photography, and I had a great time creating this Inspiration Report. I totally agree; I think using photography as a medium or a bridge between users and their local library could have such impactful results. Thanks again for your response and I hope your Finals are going well 🙂

  2. I love this project! I think it’s such a wonderful idea and great way of not only bringing the community together but getting the community recognize itself as a community.

    • Hi @louis
      Thank you so much for your kind words. I agree that projects like free portraits or offering a comfortable and safe place for individuals to express themselves are great ways to engage and build community. I had a great time working on this Inspiration Report, I’ve learned that even small ideas can be truly impactful. Thanks again for your reply!
