Emily Udell writes: “When Grosse Pointe Public Library (GPPL) outreach librarian Annie Spence was working from home during the pandemic, a colleague dropped off a care package of books at her doorstep. The package made her family feel less isolated, and she didn’t soon forget the gesture. When she returned to onsite work, she thought about the stress new parents and caregivers sometimes feel and how similar deliveries could help keep them connected to the library. GPPL is among a handful of libraries across the country that have expanded their home delivery service to now include families with new children.”
