library as a comfort station
by Perri Saunders 30 Dec '15

30 Dec '15

As winter weather approaches, we've talked about offering our library as a "comfort station", where patrons can charge phones/devices, use the computers, get warm, etc. if their power is out. Does anyone offer this service to their community? We're trying to establish some guidelines of what to offer and when to open our doors, and I'd love to hear input from those who do this already. Thanks for any advice you can offer! Perri Saunders, Director White Pigeon Township Library 102 N. Kalamazoo St., P.O.
