How about trying out a promo to the Club by hosting a cookbook exchange? Patrons bring x number of cookbooks and get a ticket for each one they bring in to use to select a different cookbook. Start keeping your library weeded cookbooks now so you have some
additional choices for folks. </div>

Start a crock pot using food pantry staples—diced tomatoes, rice or noodles, canned chicken, beans, etc., you get the idea. Offer a taste to those who attend the exchange. Promote your cookbook club during this event.</div>

Perhaps reach out to local specialty food stores who may have someone on staff who can do a cooking demo. What about contacting your local OSU extension office? Some local hospitals may offer a healthy eating course. And of course, there are many non-profits
like the Diabetes Association that may have a program ready to go. </div>

I recently started a cookbook club at our library, but it's having a bit of trouble catching on. For January, we tossed around the idea of bringing someone in to talk about meal prepping, healthy eating on the go, etc. I was wondering if anyone has ever done
something similar to this/ knows of any one I could connect with about doing this program. Thanks
