Access Video On Demand: November Programming Ideas

With Thanksgiving around the corner and winter rapidly approaching, patrons are increasingly filled with anticipation of the holidays and the changes the new year will bring. Access Video On Demand provides countless ideas for engaging community programming, such as the ones listed below, that will help them stay healthy and safe as the holidays approach, covering topics from Alzheimer’s disease and diabetes to safe winter driving. Access Video On Demand also features videos that memorialize John F. Kennedy, who was assassinated in November of 1963, and encourage patrons to learn more about their heritage and where they came from during this family-centric time of year.

Subscribers can also explore the new, complete calendar (accessible via the menu in the header, top left of any page in the platform) for the year’s milestones, holidays, and events—a great source for programming ideas throughout the year.
