After my visit at Fairfax Community Library on 10/24 I took the time to dig a little deeper into their website. Emily had mentioned a few times that their website was really a large part in how they reached the public and it sounded as though this was going to be a section they wanted to focus more on and broadening in the future, from more online resources to video how-tos.
Along with the screenshots and information I gleaned and discussed in my last post I also found a few other interesting things:
I came across most of this information under the Digital Library / Digital Resources tab in the main menu and I've only touched upon a few of the resources provided GMLC (image above) along with the Universal Class resource (mentioned in my last post) were highlights especially regarding technology for this class.
GMLC provides access to downloadable magazines, audio and eBooks along with the Libby app - with a library subscription!
Under the About tab on Fairfax Community Library's website was a PDF for their strategic plan the screenshots from it above mention using technology to educate both the staff and teach patrons who utilize the library.
I thought it was helpful to have some insight into the long term plans of the library, the above screenshots are only a snippet of the larger plan.
