Notes de l'éditeur
- Thank you for sticking around and coming to hear about our LSTA grant called the “Mobile Digital Media Lab.” It has been a really excellent experience thus far, and as anything in life, has full of successful goodies and been fraught with failure but proves that anything can be adjusted, adapted and Rome was not built in a day. Still learning…Not unlike Udog show, mini episodes… not too much at once, keeps viewers glued to their sets…
- Of course, the FCPL would like to thank the IMLS for awarding the LSTA grant and the ISL (especially Jennifer Clifton) for being communicative and encouraging throughout the grant process.Mention IMLS report on small & rural pl…

- “When help is needed, I am not slow.Notwithstanding, we had several no-show classes & classes where conflicts occurred- i.e. weather/cancelled classesChanged to one class at Kewanna after 6 months due to low attendanceDown to one at Akron now, opens up free time for new instruction opportunities
- Not plane, nor bird nor even frog, it’s just me…underdog.I had all these grandiose ideas about people using the lab for what it was originally intended for, but that use morphed into something altogether different to meet the needs of the patrons. Needless to say, the need did not meetWhat we had in mind are passive effects…what we are teaching- Give a person a fish…eat for a day, teach a person to fish, eat forever…Unintended consequences- People wanted more, various topics- Jan 1. 2013, Implemented One-on-One instruction by appointment or whenever patrons walked in asking for it…Tech Petting Zoo, Tablet instruction classes, Classes about services we offer (pay for- like Mango, OverDrive, Freegal)Collaboration- Fulton County Training Partners-Letters to Schools, Org’s, only do so much. Get some experiences under your belt.
- Of course, this is just the beginning. The ideas put forth may not meet your expectations- i.e. one underestimated what was possible vs. what is feasible. The first year is really building blocks and trial & error. The plan should really be meant to be around three years, not unlike Ivy- it takes time to take.

- Staff is big on “Customer Service” and I am inclined to believe them. We must listen to and cater to the user, otherwise no patrons, no libraries, no libraries, no jobs…
- As mentioned before, we serve 80% of people in the USA as public librarians, so our role as Underdog is not unique, and it is more pertinent, poignant, and relevant than ever.
