Northwest Corner Library Directors Roundtable

What Does the Future Hold?

Join us for the next meeting of the Northwest Corner Library Directors Roundtable, where we'll engage in a forward-thinking discussion on the future of libraries. As we navigate through a rapidly changing landscape, it’s crucial to consider what lies ahead for our libraries, our communities, and our profession.

What are we planning for? What challenges and opportunities do we foresee over the next three to five years, and beyond? This is a chance to explore the emerging trends, potential issues, and innovative solutions that will shape the future of libraries. From technology advancements to evolving community needs, we’ll be discussing it all.

This collaborative conversation will give you the opportunity to share your insights, ask questions, and learn from your fellow library directors about their visions and strategies for the future.

PLEASE REGISTER USING THIS LINK.  Each member of your organization who wishes to attend must register.
