Virtual Library Events

by Daniel Warren Hill

The local library has always been a valuable resource for education, entertainment, and community events. As technology provided more digital offerings, they transitioned into various mediums quite efficiently. Some libraries even offer a chance for you to try your hand at 3D printing. Now that most locations are closed (along with most other public building and businesses), libraries are offering virtual storytime, book clubs, and even remote gaming like trivia and Dungeons and Dragons sessions.
