Any non-Facebook online programming?

Hello, Are any libraries doing online events on platforms other than Facebook? A friend of a friend has young kids at home and is looking for things like online storytimes that she could access on Youtube or elsewhere since she is not on Facebook. I sent her some Youtube channels with read alouds, but from libraries I have only seen Facebook events so far and was wondering if anyone else knew of any libraries doing other things. Thanks, Rebecca Stout Youth Librarian Berkley Public Library 3155 Coolidge Hwy Berkley, MI 48072 248-658-3440

Hello We have a youtube going we set up last week. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8JcsxfWhmasil26xVu_r1A Staff brought home books, and needed equipment for online programming from home. We will be adding crafts, story times and maybe a painting course. We just set it up off a city gmail account we used for reference questions. Hope this helps and thanks.
