The Idaho Commission for Libraries is looking for folks to help assemble and put up shelves for Talking Book Services library collection.

This past Fall, our geothermal pipe burst and flooded our Talking Book collections room. All shelving had to be disassembled and taken out, so the floor and walls could be repaired. Several months later, everything has been fixed, and we are ready to move back in... we just need your help!

If you enjoy moving around, playing with tools, and hanging around fun people, this project is for you.

We need help Tuesday (March 26th) - Thursday (March 28th). If you can help out, please let me know which day and what time you can come in (a 2 hour time block between 9AM and 5PM).

Thank you,

Colleen

Mission Statement

The Idaho Commission assists libraries to build the capacity to better serve their communities.

Description

A few examples of how The Idaho Commission for Libraries helps build the capacity of Idaho Libraries are the following services:

Talking Book Service provides free audio and Braille books and magazines and the necessary playback equipment, for Idahoans of all ages who are unable to read standard print materials.

The Read to Me program supports early childhood literacy with a variety of projects such as "First Book", "Jumpstart Kindergarten", "Summer Reading", "Family Reading Week" and so much more.

Teen programs help inspire teens to go on to be life long readers and learners.

Lili (Libraries Linking Idaho) is a group of projects and services that bring networked library service to the residents of Idaho. Idahoans will be familiar with the LiLI Portal where users can search the statewide library catalog, read magazine and newspaper articles, and even find auto-repair help. In addition to those statewide services, LiLI fosters collaboration among libraries for interlibrary sharing, keeping up with technology trends, and developing cooperative services among libraries.
