Geocaching



I had never heard of Geocahing, but it sounds like fun.  It is like a Treasure Hunt. Geocaching could be used in libraries as a treasure hunt for finding books or as a fun way for new patrons  to find their way around the library. You might also include historic sites around the area.  It sounds like it works well in university libraries. I like the way Notre Dame  University uses Geocaching for first year students to familiarize them with the layout of the university.

At the City of Cockburn Libraries we could start off with an Easter Hunt or Treasure Hunt for the children as a fun way of introducing Geocahing to our patrons.
