Local author features and book signings
Read aloud circle time for kids. Could even take kid volunteers and have them read aloud to other children.
Interlibrary loan is critical for independent scholars in Roseburg area
The E-Library provides a critical resource for those in our community that are home bound, need audiobooks, require the ability to adjust text size etc. The old Overdrive app system was pretty good, and provided many critical accessibility features.
Good equipment for online connections for video conferencing. With online connections, people at the Roseburg Library can interact with folks anywhere in the world -- educational meetings, planning meetings, experts and guest speakers, etc.

A group where you can meet with other writers/mentors and share your writing and critique it.
We have some very smart and very interesting people in Douglas County: authors, professionals, cultural specialists, etc. It would be great to have monthly "talks" by these people. Maybe get a different local winery to sponsor each month. Wine, cheese, and an interesting lecture. Charge enough to pay for the wine and cheese, the lecturers expenses, and some profit for the library. It's good exposure for the wineries and the lecturer and would help support the library.
How to use this library's resources to conduct genealogical research.
A spot for them to hang out with tables.
