  Tyler:

  I look forward to hearing from you.  As soon as we get the info about the technology we will begin the process of ordering.  Before we start to install, I would like for our group to get together again.  

  Thanks,

  Kevin

  Kevin,

  I apologize for the delayed response, but we are gathering up information and compiling a presentation that you can use which will include the products we suggested, the brands and prices, and the benefits and reasons we suggested those products.  If this is adequate you can look for it at the beginning of next week.

   

  Also, let us know if their is anything else we can do at this point or include in the information we will send you, etc.

   

  Thanks for the patients and sorry again about the delayed response,

  Tyler Merren

    I would like to thank you all again for meeting with myself and the other KPL staff a few weeks ago.  We are anxious to move on updating our technology for our blind and visually impaired patrons.  

     

    The next step is to gather the process for the equipment we discussed, as well as the specs for each item and/or program.  I will then give this to our technology people so they can begin seeing how we can incorporate it at KPL.  So if you could send me that info as soon as possible that would be great.  

     

    After we gather all the info, the next step would be to develop a timeline as to when we can purchase and then implement the new technology.  The goal is to at least get the project moving before May 5th.  

     

    Thanks again!  

     

    Kevin

    Kevin,

    Jason Meddaugh, Tim Paulding, and myself (Tyler Merren), have collaborated and found that we would be available on the 13th of february @2:00pm to talk with you about any questions you may have or suggestions that we may have for making the Kalamazoo Public Library not only more user friendly for the blind, but honestly one of a kind as far as I know.

     

    If this time doesn't work for you, we can certainly be flexible, just write us back and let us know if this will work for you.

    Tyler Merren
