[Publib] adult programs

I suppose there's a question to be asked here:  Are you trying to
attract more library users or trying to get your existing library
users in more often?   The reason I ask is that "readers" will almost
undoubtedly be using your library anyway.  Book-oriented programming
may make them better supporters and more frequent users but won't
bring in many new users.

For new users, you need to find subjects that you can tie to your
collection(s) so that listeners can explore the interests you've
identified.  Then they may come back for more.
