We will be reaching out to individual libraries to confirm current number of Hotpots. We will also inquire to see if there are any hotspots devices that are no longer in use and would like to be turned in. We will also check to see if there is a need to expand your current number of devices. We cannot promise that new devices will be able to be sent but this will allow us to track expansion needs and hopefully fill some of those needs gradually over time.
 There is a speaker scheduled every month from September to May! It is shaping up to be a very interesting season.
Coming up next, on October 24th virtual program will be for Bat Week. To help us celebrate Bat Week 2024 Dan Bachen from the Montana Heritage Project will be speaking on the distribution and conservation of the state’s bat species, followed by a presentation from Eleanor Kamp, a local Girl Scout who has developed a blueprint for bat safe bat houses. Attendees will receive a link to the blueprint to build a bat house.
