Library Resource Online Catalog (LROC)

The Library Resource Online Catalog (LROC) provides public libraries and schools with recommendations for quality programs in arts, humanities, science, and more. The LROC contains over 1,000 program choices.

Reflection: We are all in this together, providing a common resource from which all libraries in a region may learn is a help for all librarians and patrons not to mention for those who perform the actual programs.

Resources like these can only help to ensure the quality of library programing , good word of mouth can spread like wild fire. Also, librarians are keenly aware that diffferent libraries have different budgets, this kind of networking can help hone in on affordable and appropriate porgramming.

I chose a picture of a staff (librarians in this case) brainstorming because that's what great, diverse programming requires. Our library is in the midst of planning the upcoming fall programming schedule, in an attempt to promote it in the” Back to School" edition of our newsletter. We always incorporate the tried and the true programs (book discussions, films, and story times) but coming up with new exciting programs within a budget is where the real work comes in.
