I'm excited! Our new Saturday programs begin tomorrow! This week is family storytime (Theme for this week is Pizza stories and craft) and a computer coaching session on our geneology databases: Ancestry.com and HeritageQuest. This programming is made possible by an LSTA grant and is a giant shift for Nampa. We have lacked sufficient staff to go beyond summer reading, school outreach and weekday storytimes. Focus groups and surveys in recent years revealed a real demand for weekend and multigenerational programs, but we needed to demonstrate value to the community. We have a new EventKeeper calendar on our webpage, which provides additional marketing and reservation options. This is a chance to tap into the wide range of skills and interests on our staff to meet community needs.
