We had a request from a patron about this and I found this article from the Bangor Daily News of July 31, 2012: 20 Maine libraries now have telescopes to loan<http://bangordailynews.com/2012/07/31/news/midcoast/20-maine-libraries-now-have-telescopes-to-loan/>.

Greetings All,





We are curious to find out if anyone currently provides telescopes for their patrons. If so would you be able to tell me:



    - What kind do have?



    - Who was your supplier?



    - Did you get a grant (if so, from whom?) ?



Thanks!





Sincerely,



Richard Lepage
