Moveable Laptop Desks
by Lorry Traver 23 Oct '24

23 Oct '24

Good afternoon, My library is researching the possible purchase of some moveable laptop desks for patron use in our adult and youth areas. I apologize if I already sent this question out on this listserv. Could you let me know what your library has found useful, whether it be a specific laptop desk or something else? Or, if you have experienced issues with these types of desks, could you pass that information along to me? Thank you so much! -- *"I think books are like people, in the sense that they'll turn up in your life when you most need them." - Emma Thompson* *Lorry Traver (She/Her)* Public Services Librarian Brandon Township Library 248-627-1460

FREE Items
by Erin Schmandt 23 Oct '24

23 Oct '24

We have a few items that are free to the first library that claims AND picks them up. We have a stand that used to contain a catalog computer, its dimensions are 23 ½” w x 19 ½” d x 43 ½” h. We also have two metal kiosks that uses to contain iPads. They fit 2nd generation iPads but they do not fit 6th or 9th generation iPads (which is what we switched to). These items cannot be sent through RIDES and must be picked up. Erin Erin N. Schmandt Director Caro Area District Library 840 W.
