Take a Minute to View Our "Geek the Library" Video

We launched our Geek the Library campaign this past Saturday at our local Septemberfest. It was a hit! We were able to entice approximately 50 people into having their picture taken for their very own Geek poster. We were especially happy to showcase our Geek the Library <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhV2Y5rDMbk&feature=youtu.be> video during the event. It was playing on an iPad the whole day. Everyone loved it! Thought you might like to take a peek too. It was created by our Teen Associate Librarian Alexa Webb and a fabulous volunteer, Kate Nanney. ~Julie ************************************** Julie Fikes, Assistant Director Brandon Township Public Library <http://www.brandonlibrary.org/> 304 South Street Ortonville, MI 48462 tel: 248-627-1464 fax: 248-627-1491
