I’m Not Dead Yet! Extending the Lives of Your Books To Reach More Community Members

Speakers: Alice MacGougan, Salem Public Library; Jessica Marie, Salem Public Library

Description:
What do you do with your library’s weeded books? What if you could get more life out of your collections before they “pass away?” Learn how one library breathes new life into their loved but no longer needed books by reutilizing them to create zero-barrier pop-up collections for senior housing facilities, transitional housing, classrooms, and outreach events. Additionally, learn how to use the books that have “crossed over” to make your own “No Card? No Problem!” collection for use by any and all library visitors
