For the week of July 12, the take home craft is Pipe Cleaner Pets. We will give you a variety of chenille stems, some beads, and wiggle eyes, and see what kind of pets you can make. The following are some websites and YouTube videos to give you some inspiration.
Mobile Hotspot Lending Program allows you to check out a WiFi hotspot to connect to the internet from almost anywhere. A hotspot is a small wireless access point providing internet access to mobile devices such as your laptop, smartphone, or tablet. Hotspots are portable, so you can connect your device to the internet almost anywhere you are, at home, at the park, and more. The hotspot device works in any area covered by the T-Mobile network.

One library may call these resources one name and another library may use another. OPLIN wants to hear from our patrons, and would greatly appreciate you completing this short survey. It will be available until June 30, 2021. https://oplin.ohio.gov/survey

With this kit, children can participate in virtual programs at home, and at in-person events, they will have their own supplies and will not need to share.
