Hello Libraryland!

We have started mailing library cards to new patrons with a welcome packet that explains all of our services and includes instructions for how to use our catalog and order items from MeL Cat which has been working wonderfully but I recently came to the realization that we didn't put together a welcome packet that was made with youth cards in mind. My questions for Mich-Lib are:

a) Do you have a kids welcome packet for new cardholders?

and

b) What have you included or left out to tailor it to young patrons?

I would love to see examples of your welcome packets if you are willing to share!
