[Publib] Adult programs with no program room (UNCLASSIFIED)

[Leslie Schow]

Jessica,
My library is small-ish, with no meeting room of any kind.  We do have a
clear area immediately outside my office that we sometimes use for adult
programs.  We can move tables, close doors, and arrange furniture to
make a serviceable programming space for a small group (usually 5-10
people).  The things that have been most popular are programs on
financial management, gardening, groceries & coupons, and ghosts &
hauntings.  We offer 4-6 adult programs a year.

By the way, being an "army brat," I have very fond recollections of the
army library in Heilbronn, Germany.

I'm looking for ideas for programs for adults ages 18-100 that can be
done without a program room. I work at an army library and we do not
have a program room. Therefore coming up with programs is difficult. I
have a small conference room, but it is often booked for meetings. Our
population varies from military that are stationed here anywhere from 1
month to several years, retired military, military families, and
civilian employees. I've already started a book discussion club that
meets once a month.
