<p class="MsoNormal">Greetings!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Looking for tips and anecdotal advice from public libraries who have worked with public schools to provide access to digital resources for students via Libby, Hoopla, Kanopy, etc.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our public library piloted a program in 2016 that gave middle school students digital only library cards to access Overdrive. I was not here for this program but am being asked about bringing it back with students having access to Libby.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We’d love to provide these resources – along with educational outreach – but want to work through potential issues:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">We would ask the school to communicate clearly with parents/guardians. This would include providing an opt out option. Wondering if anyone has handouts or communications for a program
such as this? These digital collections are not segmented like our physical collections – how to communicate this to parents/guardians?
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">If several students are opted out, did this greatly impact the goals of the program?
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Logistics on handling digital only cards with our other digital resources such as Kanopy and Hoopla: currently these cards would provide access to all our digital resources. Has anyone
found a way to handle this? <o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Anything else?<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for your time and input!<o:p></o:p></p>
