McMillan Library offers more than books.  (Wisconsin Rapids Daily Tribune, 6/24/2016)
McMillan Memorial Library opened its new Digital Media Studio on Wednesday with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. The studio is located behind the Fine Arts Center stage at the library and has video, sound and photography equipment, as well as 3-D printers. Library visitors who would like to learn to use the equipment are welcome to use the studio for training and program use.
New educational resource at McMillan Library.  (Wisconsin Rapids Daily Tribune, 5/23/2016)
In May, McMillan Memorial Library introduced Gale Courses, a new learning resource for the Wisconsin Rapids area. The courses offer instructor-led online classes that focus on professional development, technology skills and personal enrichment. Students have the option to view each lecture live or watch the recorded video later. Instructors post notes and assignments online throughout the course and will schedule a final test to measure the student's understanding of the material. 
McMillan is well-covered in the local paper.
