Venmo
by Pam Ballett 28 Mar '22

28 Mar '22

Hi All, Just wondering if any of your libraries use Venmo or another service like it. We don't take credit cards and many people don't carry cash anymore. I use it personally but wasn't sure about setting it up for the library. Thanks! Pam Ballett Director Schoolcraft Community Library

Storywalk Question
by Marla Drury 25 Mar '22

25 Mar '22

Folks with a Storywalk(r), how do you store your laminated stories that are not currently being displayed? Currently we are keeping them on a shelving unit with individual stories clipped together, but it is quite messy, pages get mixed up, and it's difficult to find a specific story. Any great solutions out there? Thanks! [cid:image001.jpg@01D84042.FF6025A0] Marla Drury Juvenile & Young Adult Services Librarian Alma Public Library 500 E.
