Project Overview
The Vetted Programs were created by request of the SELCO public library directors. SELCO compiled a list of "Vetted Performers" who are contracted with SELCO to perform/present/etc. at our regional member libraries. This catalog is a valuable resource for SELCO's members and the Library Legacy funding allows programming to come to libraries that otherwise could not afford to have this rich variety of programs into their communities.

Educate children about bullies and bullying. Enhance musical enjoyment through age-appropriate song and dance. Increase access to educational and family-friendly music. Reinforce the idea that libraries are places to experience cultural or arts programming.

Measurable Outcome(s)

All of the respondents enjoyed the program. They liked the music and relaxed atmosphere.
All 4s and 5s on the evaluations. Very positive response to Dennis's humor and folk music. Many participants asked for more programs like this in LeRoy they "are sick of playing bingo".
The students were interviewed. Most of those interviewed felt it was a good experience and enjoyed the program. Many would like to see another program like this.
