A Wireless/Digital Picture Frame in Your Library? What A Great Idea!

harrypotterDon’t you think it would be really great if libraries had a wireless/digital picture frame, positioned where people would always see it when they entered the building? New books could be showcased on it, and old books, too, for that matter. Authors and their biographies, movies based on books, pictures of library patrons and children’s reading clubs, pictures of prizes kids could win by reading, prize-winning essays by kids, book reviews, even chapters from books!

All these things, in the library lobby or by the front desk, changing, changing, changing, slideshowing, showcasing all the things the library has to offer, things people didn’t KNOW the library offered!

So very often, people choose a book by its cover, even though we all know we shouldn’t. Why not feature book jackets on the wireless/digital frame? What great publicity for a book! Have the local children make posters about their favorite books, and feature those on the wireless/digital frame, too.

If the library was a wireless hotspot, it could subscribe to all kinds of wonderful channels via FrameChannel! The weather, and Nasa, and National Geographic, all KINDS of National Geographic channels! National, international, and local news. Sports - all kinds of sports - specific teams, sports in general, scores. Horoscopes. Traffic reports and patterns. Famous paintings and other kinds of art. ALL kinds of art. Business. Career tips. “This day in history.” Inspirational quotations. Trivia. Cartoons. Bible quotes. Recipes. Bible quotes. House and home tips. Word of the day. Travel. Calendars. Clocks. Absolutely all kinds of photographs. Cats. Dogs. Horses. Cars. Racing. More. More. More. Etc.

In other words, pretty much everything. You can get all of these channels, and MORE, on your own wireless/digital photo frame at home, too, I hope you know by now! I do. FrameChannel ROCKS!

Personally, I believe that every business/institution/school should have a wireless/digital picture frame right up front where customers and visitors can see it. People look at wireless/digital picture frames, folks. A wise business will have one, fully loaded, in the lobby or waiting room. People WATCH.
