 Okay, good morning and welcome to this week's edition of Encompass Live. I am your host, Krista Burns, here at the Nebraska Library Commission. Encompass Live is the commission's weekly online event. Yes, you can call us a webinar if you want to, we don't mind. But we cover a variety of topics that be of interest to librarians. We do presentations, interviews, book reviews, many training sessions, basically anything that we can think of that if it has something to do with libraries, we'll put it on the show. We have commission staff that come on the show, our own Nebraska Library Commission people, and we have guest speakers as we have this morning. I'll get to that in just a second. We do these sessions live every Wednesday morning at 10 a.m. central time. But they are recorded, so if you're unable to join us on Wednesday mornings, that's okay. You can always go to our website and look at the archives of all of our recordings that we have there. This morning, as I was mentioning, as you can see on the screen, we have a guest speaker with us this morning. Jake Rundle from the Hastings Public Library is on the line with us. Hi, Jake. Good morning. Good morning. And he's going to talk to us about this very cool program they've done, the doing at the Hastings Public Library here in Nebraska. I've been following along with it on Facebook. That's where I think I first saw it. You or someone from the library shared it and I went looking for it. It's a very cool program. They have these story walks that they have during, this is the summer one that the slides are about there. But you have one you're doing right now, I think that just started. We just wrapped it up, actually. We just wrapped it up, okay. So even in the winter weather, you can do these. But I'll just hand over to you, Jake, and you can go ahead and take us through your presentation and tell us all about your story walks there. Sounds perfect. Good morning, everyone. Like Krista said, my name is Jake. I'm the Collections Librarian at Hastings Public Library. And last year, we were introduced to something called Story Walk. A staff member from the Hastings Museum sent me a message on Facebook said, hey, this is cool. You should do this. And so it kind of grew from there and became a very, very popular event last summer, making very fun in the downtown. And so I'm just going to take you through our slides. And if you have questions along the way, please do let Krista know. I love questions. So to begin, the Story Walk is a project created by Ann Ferguson in Montpelier, Vermont. And it was really a bear that it started. This was what the museum employee had seen and sent it on to me and to Amy and said, this is fun. We should try something like it. But it worked well in Vermont, and then we just took it and adapted it and made it fun for Hastings. And so the goals for our project really were to increase literacy for families. That's kind of one of the big pushes we've been hitting with our library is to see if we can't get more families to come out and read. We started 80-Bitty Storytimes so that parents of very young children can take their kid to a Storytime the ages are zero to two. Excuse me. And they can watch a librarian give a Storytime and do finger plays and kind of get a feel for how to read to their kids without having to be an expert at it. It also encouraged families to get out to the various trails and parks and Hastings. Our parks and rec keep some beautiful spaces. And so we just wanted to see if we couldn't add some incentive to encourage people to go visit those places. So we picked six locations in our first summer all along different trails, along Hastings parks, or kind of self-contained in parks. And it worked out very nicely. But our pilot project was at a place called Prairie Loft. It's an outdoor education center located about a mile west of Hastings. We have a regional center out there and it used to be back in the 30s a self-sustained farm that fed the people in the regional centers. So there are old barns and there's a giant acreage. And so that was given over to Prairie Loft to use. And so they do a lot of education with students of all ages about ag and farming and outdoor, outdoorsy things. They're a really great thing. They're a really great program. But they have a spring festival every year. So what we did was took two stories. If you give a pig a pancake and snowmen in spring. And we, with the help of our friends in the public library group, took apart books, put them onto boards and stick them into the ground. And then just gauged reaction from families to see if this was something that they thought that they could do all summer long, if this was something that they thought was interesting and unique. And if they would buy in and the response was great. Amy is the one who was out there that day so she has the numbers. I don't remember them. But it was a fairly popular event because Prairie Loft is quite a big place and so we could put two stories kind of far apart and walk them through the open areas and down some tree lines. So it gave kids a chance to go and see some various places of the Prairie Loft area and still read some great stories. And there's our picture. The start of our, if you give a pig a pancake, it went down a tree line and then came back. And then after that first initial jump at Prairie Loft, we got together with a whole bunch of various Hastings agencies. The Convention and Visitors Bureau, the museum and Parks and Rec and the library really kind of worked together to get it up in the parks. We had supporting funds from the Kiwanis and from the friends of the public library and from the Convention and Visitors Bureau and from the Highland Park Arboretum, which is a park near the museum and all the other agencies kicked in some money so we could buy some nice stakes and some nice boards and really pay for landing, which is quite more expensive than one would think. So we had six locations plus downtown Hastings and the downtown one was just a storybook we'd taken apart and backed on color paper and then we asked businesses to put them up in their windows and you start at the front and there's a map so you could walk downtown in the middle of summer. So if you were out shopping with family, you could still read a story and then it was just volunteer by business and we didn't have to go begging for anybody. We said, hey, this is something we're doing and we had enough initial response from downtown businesses that we didn't have to find extra people, which was very nice. We also had an I Spy treasure hunt that went out to the Summer Festival Prairie Loft. We chose that one because you didn't have to read it in order so we could put it all over because their Summer Festival is a music fest and so it would have been a little difficult to read a story in page order while navigating through 2,000 people. So we tried to make it as simple as possible for all the places we went. We had two Spanish language stories with English subtitles. We kind of had to create those from scratch a little but it worked out very well. We got to go a lot of places in Hastings and we tried to tailor the books we put there to the communities that lived there. So our two Spanish language stories were in our heavier Spanish-speaking population parks and it worked out very well for us. Although I will say right now having this many locations essentially staffed by the library and the museum basically split the story walk locations in half and said we'll go check them every day to make sure there's nothing wrong with them. That is very difficult to manage because a lot can happen, especially weather-wise last summer. When it was raining it was windy, when it wasn't windy it was hot and that is a lot of wear and tear on your posts and on your pictures and that doesn't even include the possibility of vandalism from your run-of-the-mill youth or adults. But what we did is took the stories, Vermont, there's a frequently asked questions page that I'll put up at the very end that we got from Vermont when they found out that we were doing this and it's a great frequently asked questions kind of thing. They recommend you buy three books. We did that because the third book is for missing pages, vandalism and whatnot. So we took apart two of the books from the binding and then laid them out in order and then spray glued them on to colored paper, laminated that paper and then punching rack head installed, posts with the boards on it so then we went out and basically packaged taped and stapled the books to their boards. You can't see the back of this one, but essentially the laminate wraps around the side, you can kind of see it there. The laminate wraps around the sides and then you're stapled it, wraps around the top and the bottom and we stapled it there and then we taped over the staples. It was a lot of tape, a lot of reinforcement. Not the best way to do it. We're trying to investigate some prettier ways to make it happen this year, but it did work and a lot of our stories did make it the entire three months of summer without needing any real maintenance outside of reapplying some tape and replacing the story every now and then. Some things we learned that it really does take a lot of people more than four. It was up to myself, one of the museum staff, and one person from the convention visitor's bureau to install the story walk pages. Each page really did take two people to do because one person would have to hold it in place while the other person was stapling. And 26 pages of children's storybook is a lot of storybook, especially on summer mornings in Nebraska. You really only get that window of about 10 minutes before it's too humid and too hot and you're miserable. Like it says in the second bullet, it's a lot more time consuming than it looks. You would think that you could just slap it on and go. That is not the case. If you attach your pictures before you put your post in the ground, then your picture generally falls off or becomes unmounted from your board as you're piloted in. So that is why we put the stakes in first. That was something we learned from our pilot at Prairie Loft. And picking the right book really does make all the difference. And there are so many great books to choose from. We chose some old ones, new ones. This one was, we picked because it meandered along the lake. And so we thought let's do something nonfiction so we can kind of get something besides a story. And this was an exotic animals one. So there was some really beautiful pictures of some very unique animals. The problem with the lake, as the next bullet point says, is using protected area. The wind actually took out four of the stakes with stories on it. Some of them just went down, two of them went into the water. We thought it was vandals for a time, but it was pointed out to us that when wind is hitting a big rectangle at 40 miles an hour for most of the evening, a lot of magic can happen and that thing will fly. And with that, the ongoing maintenance then, you really do need to set out two hours of your day or a staff member's day to go and check on them, make sure that if there's water that's gotten in, you can try to get it out as quick as possible. Check to make sure all your posts have stood up. Pick them back up or restuff them into the ground if they've broken off at the bottom. There's just an incredible amount of work that you have to think about and then you multiply that by six locations and it just, it got very, very difficult for a while. But it is incredibly rewarding. In fact, we got from parents and from kids was fantastic. There was ammonia and I was going to check on storybook pages and I saw a mom and daughter and they were reading the first page and mom said, okay, now let's bunny hop to the second one. So this five-year-old girl and this mom bunny hopped to the second story and then the little girl read it out as best she could and mom helped her and then they bear crawl to the third page. But it was truly a great interaction between a mom who was interested in helping her child learn to read as well as staying physically active because you don't have to bear crawl to the next page but it is an additional physical activity that really makes the story walk a great outside tool. Like I mentioned, the downtime business option, you just take the pictures, put them on to pretty paper and then ask your downtime business if they'd be interested in sticking them in the windows because then it's a story walk that you can do at any time. The business doesn't have to be open for you to go and experience the story. We just wrapped up our winter, our late winter story walk. It started in March and ran until the first weekend of May. It was the seven blind mice. It started at the library and ended at the library and then went in a loop throughout the whole downtown. We made a Google map so you could find it online. You could find it on our Facebook story walk page or you could just read the map on the first page too. But that's a great book because it's few words. It's very high interest with the pictures and the colors and businesses really enjoy putting it out because it's basically zero maintenance for them. Other than, yes, I'd like to have something that might drive traffic to my store. So it's encouraging for them and it's good for you and it gets your patrons, your children and your adults outside walking through your business district which is always a bonus. The story walk product in Portland, Maine is a little different. They're kind of the Ferrari in my opinion about what story walk could be. They talked with publishers to get permission to reprint and they work with an illustrator. So this is actually, you're seeing from the top of the book page to the bottom of the orange squares. That is what they put into their story walk page. And so it is the story walks page plus it has actions that they had illustrators work with as you go from page to page to try to incorporate the story as much as possible. So in this one, it's chase your tail, spin in circles. And once about birds, it was flap your wings. It's just some incredibly fun things to do. The story walk Portland, Maine as well as story walk Vermont have their pages available and there's more in that at the end. You can recreate this with some money of course but you can do the same great things that they do with your logos. Something to consider is other locations. You might not have a park. You might be more urban. You might be in the mountains where you can't put things into the ground. This is really a chance for you to be creative with your outdoor spaces. Essentially the only thing you really need to think about is will my story pages stay there in all kinds of weather and will I have something to put in its place should weather or vandals take it down. But the possibilities are limitless. You can go anywhere outside, anywhere there's families really and make a great story walk experience. The story walk Maine is on the right. Glenview Parks, I'm not sure where that's at is the picture on the left but this is what we want to turn our story walk into permanent fixtures with laminate coverings so that when you install the story walk it is protected from the wind. It is protected from the rain. It's not going to blow over in a windstorm because it's sunk three feet into the ground with concrete. And that's really what we're hoping to work toward. We've applied for a Blue Cross, Blue Shield Grant we're still waiting to hear back from but it is our hope to put two permanent story walks in this summer and into fall and then continue to add permanent story walks to each of the parks and Hastings every year as we get more money from people who are interested in helping out and from businesses who would like to underwrite it. So our grant plan is really to make a permanent space in each of the parks so that we can put out new stories every season or for special occasions. There's a park that has a fireworks display every summer so putting something out there would be great because then you could change your story just for that two day period where there's going to be a whole bunch of people in that park. And then finally suggestions for your success. Fewer locations with more books is a good plan because then if something comes down or you end up missing 30% of your pages all you have to do is trade out a story for a story. That's something we didn't think about. We thought oh more space is one book for the whole summer which is great but it's sometimes a miracle how quickly paper can degrade in sun and heat and wind and water. So if you plan for fewer locations and more books you can trade them out. There's some work involved in the trade out but it really makes up for the variation for your patrons. Involving your business community is also huge. We have so many business partners and organization partners who do our story walk and it really made it helpful because then you're just sharing the financial burden and the work burden among a greater group of people. This is Amy's daughter Catherine. She was at the Give a Pig a Pancake and it was her job to start children and their parents along the story walk path. So it doesn't ever hurt to hire a tour guide. Put someone in place, volunteer a passionate parent to really coach other reluctant parents in going about and helping experience the outdoor story walk. The public library also does other outdoor adventures we call them. We do a pub quiz twice a month at two local bars. It's just trivia tonight. Tonight we're doing Star Wars trivia because May the 4th was this weekend and so we're going to do Star Wars trivia and then the last Thursday of this month in Hastings we're doing Star Trek trivia because the Star Trek movie comes out and if you do Star Wars you must do Star Trek in order to appease the nerdy odds and keep everything equal. We have a library on the GO program at our local hospital. We go there once a month and offer programs about our databases, our new online things. We took our imagination playground lunch which is a gigantic set of essentially foam Legos the adults build. Cake Irv is Day Out is a yearly event where it's basically a big party for people who care for others in the community. So we go out there, Healthy Kids Day is similar, National Night Out is similar to that. Sometimes it's just a table, sometimes we really get out and plan and do some great things. So there are quite a few other outside of the library walls events that we do in a year. And it's our hope to kind of expand on that because as people's work lives get crazier and as the library becomes more digital people are not looking for books in the library necessarily but they're looking for the library to come to them with programming and ideas and assistance. So are there any questions? Okay, thank you Jake. Yes, if anybody has any questions. We do have one that just popped in, yep. If you have any questions just type them into the questions section of the GoToWebinar interface and I can pass them on to Jake. If you have a microphone let me know and we can unmute you and you can talk on the show just like Jake and I are. That was very, very cool yesterday. I was wanting to know how you pulled it off and how it all happened there. I don't get to head out to Hastings very much. It's a little ways west of here. Not too far but so, but we... It's far enough. It's far enough, yes. I do hear a lot about your pub quizzes though. I always want to attend those things. But we do have some questions here. Any copyright issues with doing this with the books? That is an interesting question. My screen is still up. Yep, we see it. Okay, Vermont actually took care of this. As long as you are purchasing the books, you're really entitled to do as much as you want them, as long as you do not alter in any way. The pages can be re-scanned, reproduced. What Vermont did is they took the books apart, mounted them on the card stock, laminated them, and put them up. What StoryWalk Maine did was actually talked with publishers and got permission or paid for permission to add those illustrations to the bottom and then reproduce it by printing it all as one page. Right, they got a special deal. They went direct to the publisher to do something special with it, yeah. And if you... I won't Google search it now because I don't know how quickly I can get there. You can actually pay StoryWalk Portland Maine for the overarching body that kind of spawned that creation. And you can buy the pages for stories that they've already done, that they already have permission to reprint. You just have to pay the rights... You have to pay for the rights, essentially, to Portland Maine, and then they send you the file and you can print it at your local publishing company with your library logo. So they really do make it... Well, that's nice, because I was thinking about, yeah, how would other libraries get in touch with publishers to do this, but Portland has arranged for the fact that we've already done basically the hard work for you of making this connection, so now just come to us and we can get you what you need to actually pull it off. Absolutely, and what Portland has also done is on top of printing pages to put into those permanent structures with the 2x4s and the plastic and all that fancy, they've also taken to printing... Oh, I forget the substance... The stuff that they put on the campaign signs, that plastic corrugated plastic stuff, they're putting story pages onto those because then it allows them to really wherever there is grass and they can stick the metal tines of a campaign sign, there can be a story walk. Okay, yeah, just an easy thing to just throw up, yeah. Absolutely, and they have instructions for that on the Portland... the Story Walk Portland, Maine. If you do a Google search for it, you can find it fairly quickly. I don't have it up top of my head, I'm sorry. Yeah, now, as usual, what we do here in the show, some of you all know this, we put into the Nebraska Library Commission's delicious account any links related to an episode, so I've been adding some things there. I'm still looking for the Portland's official one, but I've got Vermont in there, I've got yours, and we'll have all those links for you afterwards. And if Jake, you find some stuff later, you can always just email me, and we'll add whatever to the list. Absolutely. And the FAQ that... I will send you the FAQ as well, Chris, to put up on the slideshow. Definitely, we can put it in there, yeah. Because this really does cover a lot of the basics for the simplest Story Walk, which is to cut apart the books, mount them, and put them on posts. And they covered a lot of the bases, and all they ask really is, I mean, on the first page, you note that it's created by Anne Ferguson in Marpeller, Vermont. Yeah, Credit Heart Story Walk is a registered trademark, and I mean, but really, we got an email from her, and she's excited that we're bringing this to Nebraska. Yeah, I plan on letting her know that we were... about the recording here so that she can... Yeah, watch it as well. It's exciting when librarians have great ideas and then say, here, go do them. Yeah, take my idea and do it. Especially all about sharing, that's great. So I have a question about the books themselves. So you had to go out and buy extra copies of whatever books you wanted to use for this then. Okay, so it's not necessarily... take the ones that you already have in the collection, of course, because you need those for the people to check out and if they want to take them later. We went to our local bookstore and bought the three... we had him order us the copies so we could keep it all local. Cool. And we made sure that any book we did purchase, we had one that was added to the collection if it wasn't already so that if someone read it outside, they could go to the library and there was they could check it out as well. And they wanted to take it home. Yeah, to do that, that's pretty cool. Someone did make a comment here that this is a really great idea and that apparently the 2016 summer reading program theme is fitness and health. So thinking way ahead to then, that would be something definitely... if you guys are still continuing doing this, which obviously it seems like there would be no reason not to, that would definitely be something to think ahead to that it could go along with that. But it could even go along with any of them. Isn't the current... Dig into reading is this year's. Yeah, you could totally do it with that. Be careful, the books that are about digging and being outside and everything, you could totally use those as a theme for it and put it connected to your summer reading program. So anything that's outdoorsy related to go along with it. Yeah. Or you can tailor your story choices to be about an easy nonfiction book about digging up dinosaur fossils or moles or... I mean really the project itself lends itself to be really adaptable for whatever you would like because you can either plan by location or by story or both to really get the most bang for your buck. Yeah. Oh, and Beth is online is saying the 2014's theme, 2014 theme for summer reading is science and 2015 is heroes. Okay. Also for planning ahead. I'm sure you can find things related to that. Yeah. Absolutely. You could do all sorts of stuff with heroes and story locks and just imagine, you know, fly to your next page. I like that idea of that mother and daughter doing the... Now did they take that from like the animals that were on the pages or did she just make up doing the bunny hop? I think it was just the mom making it up. Okay. Because I saw you had said that one book that was all the letters that were animals and everything, the alphabet that was the animals. No, this was Lama Lama Ring Pajama. They were reading. And you can put instructions for those kind of things if you'd like as long as you don't alter the storybook page. So it's part of your grand mapping out on the page. Or like what Portland Main did was they incorporated that when they reprinted it. But... You just put a separate piece of paper, a separate page there with the page from the book next to it that is eliminated on that particular post, yeah. Absolutely. So you can add a lot without having to pay the publisher for reprinting rights. I mean you just have to kind of visually think about how much is too busy on a page in terms of laying out your pages. Right. There are lots of fun things you can do with it. We do have a new question that just came in. Is there any liability to the library if a child is injured while doing a story walk? Not for us because we put them all in public parks. I would think it would go to the park. Yeah. It's part of where the department takes that. And I'm not certain what kind of insurance policy a public park has to have, but the park's got the responsibility of injury since it's theirs. It's in theirs on their land, yeah. So basically same as anytime anything you do in a public park that would handle it, they would be handled the same way. And we work with the parks and rec guys really to find the best place to put the stories so that they wouldn't get mown over in the summer and that they could take care of them properly and that they were close enough to walking paths to be readable but far enough so that if someone took a spill on a bike they wouldn't gouge out an eyeball. They would know all that, yes. Yeah. Work with your parks guys, guys and gals, I suppose, to figure out the best path and those kind of things. Then you just take a little bit of that responsibility. It takes about liability away from everybody because they're the experts. Right. They know how people use their parks. They know what they need to do for all that. Yeah. I do like the idea of the ones, the thing that Portland was doing and whichever the other one was with the more permanent signs. That reminded me more of those kind of historical markers that you see in parks or historic sites. So it would be that same kind of thing. Now, is that where they're like, some of those historical markers, it's obvious that it's papers put underneath the plexiglass or whatever, but sometimes it appears it's actually printed onto the plexiglass like permanently. That's what they look like sometimes when I see them. Do you know which way that you guys would be? It's printed page underneath. Okay. It's how we do it probably because then it just gives us options for treating out halfway through summer. Albright, change it out for different stories when you want to, yeah. That would be the hopeful goal. We're price checking materials and it's about $1,500 for lumber and plexiglass and all the screws and lug nuts and whatnot for two books, roughly 17 pages in length. We're going to make, I think we're going to put in 8.16, 32 posts, 34 posts, something like that. That's what we asked for in the grant and that's about $2,000 in equipment costs when you do labor and then putting them into the ground and cementing them there. To do it permanent like that, it's not cheap but it is, I mean, you get your bang for your buck then. Oh, definitely. Replace it year after year after year. Take some, you know, set some money away yearly to scrape off any spray paint that ends up on there somehow, magically. And having the permanent ones will, I mean, hopefully be able to do, excuse me, a lot less ongoing maintenance because you don't have the ones that they're not going to blow away. Nobody's going to be able to pull them out of the ground and have them steal them or anything like that. Right. And it's surprising. I mean, we picked pretty sturdy fence posts. That's what it looked like, yeah, in the pictures. But when the wind, you know, when it's just 30 mile gusts for, you know, eight hours in the overnight, that post will either wriggle itself out or it'll bend itself completely over and then you have to break it off, pull out the tiny sump and then in the summer you have all these story walks of varying heights. Kind of meandering through this park. And it got to be towards the end. We, of the six locations, we did just pull a couple and just then let everyone know on the Facebook page that, hey, the story walk at this park is closed for the year because it really did get to be, we would have had to have bought three more books to replace all the pages. And the plywood had gotten wet and water had seeped in and so it just became really more work than it was worth at some of them. So, start small would be my encouragement. Yeah, experiment with one, see how it goes, yeah. I like the one, the idea of the ones that you had on the windows in town, too, if you're looking for something even less labor intensive, getting together with the businesses and then you're just pasting things up in their windows. Because then a lot of your cost is for the books and materials. You can have library volunteers put the pages together. You can have your business, your downtown businesses administration or your convincing business bureau, whomever in your city or your town if there's someone of that to go to the businesses. You can go to your Chamber of Commerce and solicit them to ask their members if they're interested in doing this because it just drives people to their business. So it's a win for everybody. Yeah. But there's not a lot of work on your end aside from picking stories and then paying to get them done up. But then you just sit back and watch people enjoy their stories and give you feedback for changes next year. Mm-hmm. I can definitely see that being a cool thing. I know I've liked going through towns and here or New York where they have the different... the windows done up at Christmas time and you always want to see the next one. What's the one that the next store look like? What do they do on their window for the scene? And this will definitely... if people do that already, just going to see how the windows are decorated and what's in them. And this will be even more so. They're going to want to do the whole thing until they get to the end of the story. Exactly. Got to see how it ends. Okay. So just from the audience, you can type them into the questions section of the GoToWebinar interface here. I'll see if there's anything... any last minute. Nobody's typed anything in yet while we were chatting here. Okay. I found an article here about the Portland one. I don't know if it has a link to anything. Yeah. I'll keep looking for the Portland page. Okay. Just come in. Thank you so much. Great idea. Love this idea from Laura Hess out there at Stanton. So I think if nobody has any last minute urgent questions for Jake while we're on the line here, we can wrap it up this morning. You do have his e-mail and Amy's e-mail there. I think it's Curiosity. Curiosity? Portland. Curiosity. There you go. Okay. And so, librarians, educators, booksellers, bloggers, and then from here you can kind of wander around and find the StoryWalk page but it'll give you a breakdown in prices for purchasing from StoryWalk, Portland, Maine already done things. Yeah, that's it. Okay, they've got their own name, Curiosity.net. Cool. Yeah. This was a great resource for me because they had links to their Flickr page so you could see what it looked like. Part of the money that they got for their StoryWalk project was to make a park and make it fancy. So there's some just, I mean they just did a lot of really cool work. So up there at the top under where it says children's book marketing, is that where you could get in touch with them about is it purchasing the Well, let's see. I just want this part. It's hard today because I know it was this one right here, the Curiosity DPW. It's then they talk about their pricing and they changed it since I was here last so it's hard to find it again but yeah, where books and kids meet. Department of Public Works, there we go. And so it's the Curiosity DPW and you might have just started to find to find exactly what you're looking for but that is going to have a lot of the pricing stuff because they broke it, Vermont breaks it down to posts and plywood and laminates so about $250 to $3M per book. Curiosity went a step further and said if you wanted to put it on the campaign sign stuff, this is what it costs to buy the rights from us and reprint it with your logo. They give you options for adapting or ballparking it for your own community and that's certainly something you can give them a call. I called them because they had the Ferrari Story Walk enclosure and with the big board and the plexiglass and all that fun stuff I asked if I could get the plans for that and they were really accommodated and giving me all sorts of help and ideas and finding me those things so they're willing to share their ideas, share their expertise Vermont and main boat definitely resources to look at if you're thinking you want to do something like this in your town or city. Cool. Great. You'll email me that document that you're showing. PowerPoint slide. Proper presentation. We'll put these both up. The FAQ and PowerPoint will be up on the commission's slide share account when we get all the recording done and I'll post it up there for everyone. There we go. Well I think we'll wrap it up for the morning then. Thank you very much, Jake. This is very cool. I hope they do this in more towns. It would be cool if they did it here in Lincoln where I can just walk down on the street and do it. Lots of comments coming. Great information and thank you. Our Story Walk page on Facebook is facebook.com slash Hastings Story Walk. If you do happen to do this in your town shoot us a picture of it. We'd love to see what you guys are doing and share with our readers that if they're going on vacation somewhere in Nebraska or elsewhere they have a Story Walk they can experience in mountain cities all over. Absolutely. Go and visit other ones in other towns. Make it a thing. Lots of people do that. They say I'm going to go to every Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum in the country. That's my thing I do everywhere I go. In librarians we go and visit whatever the public library is wherever we go. I can't not do that. Okay. We're here. All right. Doesn't look like any more last minute questions or comments coming in. So thank you very much Jake. This is very cool, very fun project and thank you everyone for attending. I'm going to pull back Presenter Control to my computer here. There we go. Okay. So thank you everyone for attending. Thank you very much Jake for sharing this with us. And like I said it is being recorded. The recording will be up. All of the links we put up we do put our archive shows up here in the website as you can see here, Archive Encompass Live Sessions. So you can see afterwards here's last weeks we'll have links presentation and the recording will be available. So that will wrap it up for this morning. I hope you'll join us next week on Encompass Live when our topic is university of Nebraska in your neighborhood. We are going to have staff from the University of Nebraska Lincoln extension office telling us about the different programs and services they offer through libraries or that just your library can help your users use. So we'll have someone from the UNL extension office on the line with us. So I hope you'll sign up and join us for that. Encompass Live is also on Facebook. So you can like us on Facebook and you'll see all of our posts about upcoming shows are put up here. When the recordings are available we post up here. If we find any other links or information that's related to a show sometimes we'll share that and we'll also remind you when a new one is about to start. So definitely if you are a Facebook user like us on Facebook and keep up with what we're doing there. And if you are in Nebraska library and you're interested in getting for watching these shows you do you can earn if you're in Nebraska library working toward certification you can get continuing education credits for watching our Encompass Live shows both live and recorded. And if you're looking for more educational opportunities for that kind of thing you can also we encourage you to join up and participate in our Nebraska Learns 2.0 program. This is our 23 things program that we have where we have expanded it instead of just a limited time every month we offer a new thing that you can learn, a new service, a new product, something techie maybe and you can earn continuing education credits for this. This month we're having you look through the webby awards, awards for websites online movies, mobile apps, anything pick one of your choosing so you get to do whatever you want and tell us what you think of it. We also offer a book thing every month where we suggest a book that is what we think related to libraries or librarianship sometimes it may be an obvious relation sometimes it may be a little what does that have to do with us? This month we've got confessions of a public speaker actually doing any presenting like Jake just did or you're interested in doing it this could definitely help you out with that. You can read the book, write a short little book review of it and earn CE credits for that as well. This is just continuing education credits are only for Nebraska libraries I do know we have people who watch our show from all over but feel free to go here and check out what we have offered here and checking with your continuing education coordinator in your states and they may also possibly offer you credit for doing our programs and our lessons that we offer here. So if there's nothing else coming in and I don't see it, thank you very much for attending this week and we will see you next time on Encompass Live. Bye-bye.
