Well, this week has been another interesting and busy one. Sadly, no one new has been coming to use the assistive technology. We still do have a couple of regulars that come in at least a couple times a week, which is great. I've really beeing working on outreach again this past week. I've put together a list of organizations that have newsletters that might publish an article on the assistive technology services at the library.
I'm also working on the transition to Dayton's Bluff. I've been contacting various colleges and universities around the area to see what types of assistive technology they offer, what people find most useful, and any suggestions they may have as we're expanding our assistive tech. Since Lexington will be closing in just over a month, I'm starting to think of ways to advertise the services I'll have available at Dayton's Bluff soon. The interesting part is figuring out just what we'll have. I know we have a version of Kurzweil and Dragon there, but I'm not sure if there is any other software that's not installed. I don't want to advertise products or services that aren't there. We're also thinking about adding some additional software to the machine, so a lot of things are up in the air right now.
I'm still working on the various committee projects as well. I've found a few good possibilities for background music for the video. there's one in particular I think might work well, but I also want a variety of music styles to choose from. Hopefully this weekend I'll be able to work more on the toolkit layout and some more audio.
I haven't really had much time for anything else this week. I've been trying to catch up and get a little ahead on hours, especially since I was sick for a couple of days last week. It sounds like I may get together with some friends for a couple games of cards and maybe a BBQ if the weather is nice.
Until next time.
