Skills & Expertise
Project Synopsis: Challenge/Opportunity
Creation of a tool that could be embedded on the library's website that showed the bookmobiles status (at a certain location, running late, etc.) that would also be linked to a public-facing map. This map could be easily changed, and descriptions of bookmobile stops could be added. Additionally, we want to link this to an email list and/or texting service that people could opt-in to. People could opt-in to getting notifications letting them know if the bookmobile is at a particular "stop" (e.g. Get an email or text that the bookmobile is at the Clinton stop, or running late). These notifications could also include links to the live tracker embedded on the library's website.

Project Synopsis: Expected Results
Having a tool that makes the bookmobile easier to find and understand for the public.
