I love the way that community storytelling can be used to bring communities together and teach history in a way that is personal and meaningful! I’d love to see a memory lab in action!

Great idea to collaborate with local middle and high schools! It would generate interest in the project and involving them in planning for the space would help them understand their value as patrons.

What a great idea and a wonderful way to give young people a way to voice their personal histories and experiences! Nice presentation!

I’m not familiar with OPALS but I do think this would be an interesting idea to implement with ELA students/teachers. It would give students a chance to think and write about something they enjoyed (or didn’t enjoy) reading. Posting a review to OPALS would give them a chance to practice writing an opinion in an informal way and mig…Read more

I think Charlie Carts would be quite valuable, especially with smaller libraries where space is at a premium and was surprised at the amount of equipment they can store.

There was the drama of the search, and the potential embarrassment had the books remained lost, but patrons really do care about returning…Read more

The term “naive experts” is more accurate and makes plain a level of inexperience; children don’t have the frame of reference for some of the things they encounter online. They are connected so much more now so digital literacy needs to be taught explicitly, in a systematic, structured way.

I imagine it must be quite the spectacle at schools when the kids find it parked outside!

As for providing more programming for adults, I came across this awhile ago. In addition to the walking club, the organizer also owns a book truck:…Read more

I just figured out that Dungeon Crawler Carl isn’t really science fiction but Lit RPG, which I had not heard of before. I’ve read a few of the Magic 2.0 series by Scott Meyer and have enjoyed it so far (it’s on pause for DCC). Apparently it’s Game Lit but not Lit RPG. I love learning these things and have fallen down a rabbit…Read more
