Beyond Method #3

Our library website currently includes a static map of our location, but I could see benefits to replacing our current map with a Google map which would allow patrons to get specific driving directions or to expand the map to see more of the surrounding area. I did not find Google Maps quite as easy to use as I had anticipated. Creating a new map was not a problem, but I expected to be able to enter an address as part of the creation process, rather than returning to the search box to enter an address and then saving the identified lcoation to the map I had created.

Here is the link to the map I created for a place I would like to visit someday:
