Impact Survey
We want to hear from you! From July 21 to August 11 the library will be running an online survey to understand how patrons use the library’s technology so we can provide resources and services that are valuable to the community. The Impact Survey is anonymous, available in English and Spanish, and takes 10-15 minutes to complete. The survey is confidential and does not collect any personally identifiable information
Please support the library and help us improve our services. Fill out the survey here, or by clicking the button to the right.
Impact Survey is a project of the University of Washington Information School. For more information about the Impact Survey, inquire at the library information desk or visit www.impactsurvey.org.
Humane Society of Huron Valley Wish List Drive
The Humane Society of Huron Valley (HSHV) graciously let us film some of their furry friends for our CYS promos and badge videos. To return the favor we are asking that you help us support the cuddly animals of HSHV by donating to our Wish List drive. We will have a receiving box near the entrance of the library and will accept donations starting on Thursday, July 17 through the end of the day on Friday, August 1. Top items requested by HSHV are:
- Gently used bath towels, small blankets, and small pet beds that can be washed.
- Dog and cat food in the original unopened bag within 3 months after the expiration date.
- Dog and cat food in the original opened bag within 3 months after the expiration date, providing it is free of bugs or rodent waste.
But that is only the tip of the iceberg of the many items that help HVHS care for their residents. For more donation ideas, please visit their website for a complete wish list of items.
As an added bonus, supporting this donation drive will also earn you your CYS Animal Lover On the Scene badge.
