Our American Album book discussion tote project, funded primarily by a grant from the Institute for Museum and Library Services, is progressing. 1 tote, Out of the Dust by Karen Hesse is already in circulation. 19 more are in processing. Each tote contains 10 copies of a book, a discussion guide, and either an audiovisual version of the book or a magnifying glass for readers with visual disabilities. We have many more titles to get ready for the circuation.
The second phase of this project is recruit teens to videorecord the personal stories of local residents about events in history and their own lives.
If you know a person with stories to tell or if you are a teen who would like to be a videographer, please contact me at bdcrouse@fclspa.org. We need you. Our goal is to complete most of the project by early May.
