[aisle] New YA titles slideshow

[Renee Kozeal]

I had the same idea! We just added three large screen TVs to our main
library. I intended to do a slideshow of books and quotes to run
continuously, but that is labor intensive to keep current and interesting.
So, what we are doing is the slideshow for the first 10 minutes of each
block and the last 10 minutes of each block (4 blocks per day). The rest of
the block we have ambiance videos playing--green setting, stream running,
birds singing; crackling fire; beach scene with waves; wind blowing through
trees; etc. So, each block is a different setting and runs for close to an
hour. Our Tech Guy set up the schedule and it just automatically rolls all
day long. We mute the tvs by the kids if they are bothered by it but
otherwise keep the volume fairly low. My aide and I love it since one of
the TVs is behind our circ desk--we crank it!!! Cicadas and crackling
fire--can't beat it! Stress and anxiety relief for kids. :)
