Check out all of the resources our library has for honoring the contributions, culture, and legacy of Asian American and Pacific Islanders! We have displays honoring the culture and traditions, books by important AAPI authors and biographies of important members of the community! See some of the interesting books in the displays below and check out the online presence on the Alice Deal Libguide and our digital collection in SORA!

Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino boards are able to read inputs - light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message - and turn it into an output - activating a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online. You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of instructions to the microcontroller on the board. To do so you use the Arduino programming language (based on Wiring), and the Arduino Software (IDE), based on Processing.

Deal library has several Arduinos which students can use while in the library. Students can talk to Mr. Reichlen if they are interested in learning more about them or trying to explore some cool projects to use with an Arduino.
