Time and Location:
Federal Way Library Reflection
January 6th, 2015
8:10 AM to 12:15 PM
Ivette
and I drove to the Federal Way Library in her tiny, but loud, old VW bug. In
between the loud vrooms, we talked about the plan for the meeting with
Catherine Lord and Edna. Our approach, as it has been throughout the project,
is to start where we are, which means that instead of bringing any kind of
definite plans to the table, we wanted to have an open discussion about what
the library could offer and what we could offer in return in order to create a
successful partnership. Our only steadfast requirements are a workspace for the
people, childcare for their children, the requisite technology, and volunteers
to help.
The
library has a beautiful space with large windows that allow viewers to see the
forestry outside. It is also a large space with many computers and books of
course. After we arrived, we looked at the meeting rooms where we would be
holding the workshops as well as providing educational activities for the
children.
I think that the future workshops
at the Federal Way Branch library will be incredibly successful because of the
enthusiasm of Catherine and Edna. Furthermore, they had a lot of different
avenues for spreading the word about the February programs.
Afterwards,
Ivette and I headed back to Seattle and stopped by a coffee shop to discuss the
blog and reflection posting for the class. We also talked about a way organize
the posts using tagging.
