Library Shout-out: Johnston Backpacks

Someone I know posted this on Facebook, and I thought it was too good not to share. A local library has backpacks you can check out that are filled with info about an area you might be visiting (like, one looks like it's labeled Colorado). I think this is such a cool idea, and what a great example of the library of the future that's not reliant on a major library structure overhaul or a bunch of expensive technology--which all has it's place, too. This just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, like some kids might get to spend summer vacation learning, too.
