[Publib] Books for Babies

[Lorie Hyten]

You can give coupons to the local hospital. Hospital passes the coupons on
to new moms, who  can redeem the coupons for a board books at the library.
That's the way we do it.

Is there anybody out there affiliated with a municipal library whose friends
group has done a Books for Babies program? My friends group is very
interested, and I like the idea, but we can't imagine how we would round up
the names of new parents in our town. Lists from hospital maternity wards
would include a county-wide spectrum; there are no local nursery schools,
and the rosters from those nearby where our residents go would include names
from all over. It's the only detail stopping us from instituting what I
think could be a program beneficial to parents and the library.
