<div dir="ltr">Thanks, Sam and Chris. Sorry for the long response time; I'm sure you guys know how it is to be pulled in a hundred directions at once, ha.<div><br></div><div>I don't know that we have a clear mission statement, per se. I guess our goal is to create a digital space that provides access to things that the teens wouldn't otherwise have access to, both for leisure/recreation and school or personal projects, whether that's because it's cost prohibitive for them to own it or they don't have a computer capable of running it, etc. We want to have a mixture of both utilitarian software, like the Creative Cloud stuff, as well as a variety of games. We're going to be doing standard stuff, like Minecraft and Roblox, but do want to expand on that. We're trying to stay away from most of the stuff that would garner an M for Mature rating, but that's about where we're at.</div><div><br></div><div>Is that helpful at all? </div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr">Thanks,<div><br></div><div><b>Jordan Cooper</b><br><i>Technology Associate</i><br>Athens County Public Libraries<br><a href="mailto:jcooper@myacpl.org" target="_blank">jcooper@myacpl.org</a></div><div>(740) 590-1643</div><div><br></div></div></div></div>
