CARL Update: Outreach "OR" Branch

Submitted by tricia.andrews on Wed, 10/18/2023 - 10:12

In August we made the move to allow Library by Mail guests to place holds on material in branch BM. However, we realized BM guests only had access to a small portion of the Outreach collection at the Service Center. Currently, Outreach consists of three branch collections: Book Centers (BC), Books by Mail (BM), and Outreach (OR).

News & Departmental Updates:  

  • Experience Passes - Our Day at the Zoo Book Zoo vouchers have been replaced and are being disseminated to the libraries. 
    • Kim Terry was able to secure a verbal agreement with the Oklahoma History Center for another Experience Pass venue. Next steps will be to finalize the agreement and get information and images established for the passes so we can set an implementation date. Other venues are still being checked on to see if there is 1 more that we want to implement this year.

Children's Day Festival 2015

Submitted by jhausburg on Wed, 05/06/2015 - 08:08

On April 19th, Capitol Hill and OUT staff participated in SW 29th Street's 3rd annual Children's Festival Day. Theme of the event was "Family Fun Focused on Children's Future".

At the library booth, families and children visited to pick their choice of an age-appropriate book. We estimate that between 700-800 books were distributed. Spoticus was on hand to give hugs and high-fives!

What a great way to emphasize that the library plays a big part in forming a child's future.
