Puzzle Competition - Swap & Borrow
by Anna Merritt 28 May '24

28 May '24

Hello All, With programming & sustainability in mind, I was wondering if any libraries who have hosted Jigsaw Puzzle Competition programs would be interested in participating in a swap & borrow program? I was thinking that a spreadsheet could be kept with the library's name, contact person, & list of what puzzles they have & how many. Libraries who are interested in hosting a jigsaw puzzle program could reach out to a library on the list and borrow and/or swap puzzles through RIDES. This might be a more sustainable and cost saving alternative for some libraries. Please let me know if you HAVE jigsaw puzzles from past programs and would be willing to participate in a borrow/swap. Thanks!

Canva update “Glow-up”
by Katie Rothley 24 May '24

24 May '24

Hi all, if you have a Canva you can get the secret “glow-up” by: 1. Go to your Canva homepage 2. Click on “for you” in the upper left hand corner 7 times (little confetti will pop out) 3. Then if you have admin controls, you can enable it for your team and explore the cool new stuff they’ve added. It’s apparently only available to the first 1 million people who discover it? I think it’s just early access and will eventually be made available to everyone at some point. But I’m absolutely thrilled by this little bit of creative marketing they’ve initiated. It’s almost like gamifying the use of their product! I wasn’t sure if everyone knew about this because it’s a bit of a secret - so now you do! https://www.canva.com/help/glow-up/ Katie Rothley, MLIS Marketing & Public Relations Librarian Northville District Library 212 West Cady Street Northville, MI 48167 (248) 349-3020 <callto:(248)+349-3020> ext. 221 https://northvillelibrary.org Currently Reading <https://www.goodreads.com/user/email_signature_destination/32729040?utm_med…> [image: Book Cover] <https://www.goodreads.com/user/email_signature_destination/32729040?utm_med…> [image: Goodreads Logo] <https://www.goodreads.com/?utm_medium=gr_logo&utm_source=email_signature>Get your own email signature <https://www.goodreads.com/user/email_signature_instructions?utm_medium=gyo_…> My working day may not be your working day.
