Recently, El Dorado County Library asked for funds to support some initiatives they have in the works. These include adding SMS (subscriber messaging services) capabilities to remind patrons when library materials are coming due, when holds are available, and other notifications previously sent via email.

Another project they needed help with is scanning photos for the El Dorado County Museum, which is now under the purview of the County’s Library System. This project required funding for a scanner that allows for scanning books and the software to support the scanner. This will allow patrons to search and view historical photos that have been scanned by library staff.
