Library use is up significantly this year. Circulation of library materials in April 2008 was 8,025 more than that in April 2007. We had over 30,000 visitors during the month, with 4,007 using our library computers, with 3,387 attending library programs, and 1,606 more using our meeting rooms.
Staff members have been busy constructing a new Children's Place website and working on our Olympic themed Summer Reading Clubs. We've purchased an application that will allow patrons to register for the reading clubs and update their reading records online from home or in the library. Staff members and volunteers will also be available to give personal assistance at all our help desks.
Most public service staff members have been trained this past month on using the new sound system acquired with the assistance of our Friends of the Library. The new system will allow more than one speaker to use a microphone as well as providing sound in all three meeting rooms, should two or three different programs be scheduled at the same time.
