Questions I Hope to Ask

I'm not really sure about the questions that I want to ask specifically about what they have because I don't know what they have! I will know more when I get there and I'm definitely not afraid to ask lots of questions. There are no dumb ones, after all, right? I am taking the list that goes with our assignment, though, just to make sure I have all those bases covered.

A few questions that I definitely want answered:

  • Was the switch to Evergreen worth it?
  • Do you write many grant proposals for technology needs?
  • Do you have WiFi?
  • Do you keep your CDs in your books or put them behind the desk?
  • Do you put time limits on the Internet?
  • Is the Internet filtered?
  • Do you use anti-theft technology on any items?
  • What can you just not get enough of when it comes to technology?

Some of those may seem quirky or narrow, but I guess in my head I'm comparing Kennedale to the larger Fort Worth system. I'm familiar with how Fort Worth does things and I want to see the differences between small and large libraries. For a reference point, Fort Worth has a population of 741,206 and Kennedale has a population of 7,284.

For the rest of the questions I'm just going to go with the flow and see where that takes me.
