Hi everyone,

I'm a Mom and a children's librarian and I'm esp. interested in what
you would like to see libraries offer in the way of programs that
would best help you and your children. Public libraries need to be
vital for children and parents using traditional and nontraditional
learning methods.

Our main library is undergoing a major overhaul and when it reopens we
want to be able to reach out to the public and offer even more
programs. Of course we want those programs to be things that are
truly needed by parents and children. Are there programs your library
has offered that have been especially helpful? Are there things you
always wished the library would do? All suggestions and ideas welcome.

Thanks you,
Kate
