Can You Hear Me? Seeking Portable PA System Recommendations

Today we have a guest post from Angela Meyers, Coordinator of Youth and Family Services at Bridges Library System.

Many of us are finding ourselves in the position of planning programs outdoors as we continue to practice social distancing measures during the pandemic. Outdoor programs come with their own set of challenges, including competing with noises from road noise, passerby, wind, birds, dogs and more. 

To help overcome some of the noise challenges of hosting programs outdoors, your library may have purchased a portable public address (PA) sound system with microphone for you to use. If you purchased a portable PA system within the last year or two, we encourage you to share what make and model you purchased, along with any other information you think others might find helpful using this Google Form. 

The list of portable PA systems will be compiled and shared here at the YSS blog as a snapshot in time.

Thanks in advance for sharing your recommendations and expertise!
