[ISLMA-Share] Charging station

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

We have one at our high school, we had maintenance install a long
counter/shelf with a bracket, and then they installed more outlets, so we
have 14 outlet spots at the counter for students to use.  It cost about $65
 because one of our maintenance people is a certified electrician, so we
just had to pay for parts. I liked the wider white shelf at Menards, it was
sturdy, but lighter and less expensive than an actual countertop - our
library has an angled wall , so we just put the counter there, and students
can just pull up a chair and charge during study hall.
