Wild Animals Loose in the Library
Suffolk County libraries are finding that CEED’s virtual programs can be a wild and wonderful way to keep patrons connected. We’ve created a brief video to show some highlights of our programs and invite you to think about how CEED’s virtual programs can work with your library.
Northport East-Northport Library and Emma Clark Library have recently chosen to offer their patrons multi-session CEED programs and join a growing list of libraries for whom we’ve done both in-person and virtual programs. Check with your library colleagues for reviews!

Jamie Papandrea, Library Director at the Brookhaven Free Library, says “We’re working to develop our own virtual/online skills, but there are some things we can’t replicate. We don’t have a tortoise or a dove, or the animals Ranger Eric has, so it’s good to be able to still offer that experience. We’ve been doing programs with Eric and CEED for some time and we look forward to continuing to work with CEED, whether virtually, and hopefully eventually in person.”
