In this module shows how libraries have changed as seen in the lecture video from staying overnight in a library to having mobile reference deck. With the addition of programs for people of all ages we see libraries have been and will be adapting to the community they serve and others who wish to use their services. While not covered in the lecture the reading shows that technology from programs from STEM or crafts, computer usage, and using social media to engage the community.

 While these programs and services are eventful the services provided should have a rough idea of what city or community needs as some cities might have different needs than others. For example, I live between two cities one has 67,048 in population the other has 101,918 in population both have two libraries in the middle is I live in city with only 19,143 in population with one library. Events like computer class or holding meetings/ study groups is not possible as the library in my city has 9 computers and no separate meeting rooms. Like other library no mater what library of all size try to make do with what they have to best serve the community no matter what. Also it show how libraries still try to engage with community despite their challenges that occur or are faced with.
