Rocking Away Fines!
Yesterday from 1 to 5 was our "Rock Away Your Fines" event, where teens were invited to drop in and play some Rock Band to get rid of their library card fines. For every song they played, we deducted $1 of fines from their card! A total of 24 teens showed up, and we got rid of $141 in fines! Hopefully this will help a lot of them to get started on checking out books again for the Summer! I was asked by quite a few people when I would be doing this again, so I'll look for ways to possibly fit another one in before the fall. Rock Band worked pretty well for this type of event, but maybe for the next one we could try something new. Big thanks to everyone that came in and participated!
