<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">We run a Book a Librarian service for individual research needs and
are thinking about creating a similar Book a Trainer service so community
groups and organizations can request a librarian to provide training on basic
computer skills or library resources. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">We're hoping to supplement computer class numbers which have
been declining over the past couple of years and provide better outreach to our
community on our resources and services. We have tools in place to connect
librarians with students and classrooms and this would be geared toward adult
learning. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">We're wondering if any other libraries are offering a similar service?
If so, we'd love to hear about your experiences.</p>
