The Frankfort Library was able to offer four art workshops for teens. The first two workshops were held in October with local artist Becca Harris. They were Succulents & Smoothies and Cartooning & Coffee. In November the workshops included Art of Glass Fusion with Frankfort-Schuyler art teacher Cynthia Brownell and building a Keepsake Box with local small business owner Cindy Young. A fifth session was scheduled for jewelry making in December but ended being postponed until 2025 due to conflicting schedules before the holidays.

In July, 2024, Rome was hit by an EF2 tornado that went through the city’s center coming within a block of the library. In this one hour program, learn what procedures, policies, and partnerships helped Jervis to respond quickly to the tornado warning and as an essential component of the community’s response. In addition, you will be invited to consider other actions that can be part of response preparedness.

In this webinar, the presenter will briefly share their professional journey with ADHD in digital project management, detailing the coping mechanisms they developed before and after their very recent diagnosis. The focus will be on how these strategies have been helpful in managing projects, and the mistakes encountered along the way.

This is a digital workshop designed for library staff looking to elevate their reference desk interactions by using digital resources effectively.  Zoom will be used to facilitate the session in order to accommodate a wider audience. Participants will explore best practices in reference interviewing.  There will be time allotted at the end of the workshop for participates to ask questions or get additional assistance if needed.
