The Hamilton Public Library would like to engage newborns, infants, and their parents by helping them to access library resources in convenient ways. Following the lead of other libraries who have programs for infants, we would like to identify effective community engagement, engage with each newborn in Hamilton, and quantify the effectiveness of these strategies with families with newborns and newcomers to Canada.
Goal(s): The goal of this project is to quantify the effectiveness of outreach that is targeted at families with newborns and newcomer families.
