I had a hard time finding examples of exactly what I was thinking but found inspiration for elements of it. The program you described sounds very similar. There are so many directions and themes to explore, from relevant current events to locally relevant topics. The cookbook idea is so fun…Read more

I haven’t been to Henry Ford since eighth grade. I would really be interested in seeing the JFK vehicle and the bus.

I am thinking studio 300 was shared somewhere on one of the socials and I liked it and added it to the class.

And I love the fact that you came to Michigan to explore. I need to get down to Detroit and visit the museum. Also, back in 2012 at the R squared conference, I did a half-day workshop that Nina Simon led, and it was one of the most interesting things I’ve ever participated in.

It is so inspiring to read about the robust offerings from your outreach department. The work is certainly something to be proud of.

That was always something. 😀😀😀 also just getting out of Chicago to Indiana was strategically planned. And I most often took the skyway just because it was quicker even with the cost.

Toward the end, you asked an important question about how do we reach adults with a book mobile? What would that look like?

This seems to be a common issue, especially in children’s spaces as you mention. Architects have slowly been renovating the children’s floor at my library system, and one of the changes was new carpeting. Many of the children’s librarians commented on how difficult it is to clean carpet after inevitable accidents and that they…Read more
