Evolving Public Libraries for the 21st Century & Beyond Webcast 

This is a 60 minute pre-recorded webcast. With our online anytime format, you will immediately receive the link to the webcast, password and the link to the webcast handout upon successful registration. You do not need any special software to view and listen, just a computer!  Since passwords are changed frequently, we suggest viewing the webcast as soon as possible after registering.  

Description:

Instead of locking libraries into 19th century ideals, consider principles that reflect current technological, cultural, and societal opportunities. Live performances, bookstore categories, virtual programming, librarians embedded in community organizations, and partnerships with social service agencies reflect just a few of the new 21st century principles.

Presenter:

Pat Wagner has been a trainer, educator, and consultant for 40 years, having worked with clients in 48 states and Canada. She is a manager and producer at Pattern Research, Inc.

She has been a poet, playwright, printer, publisher, and graphic designer, and loves books, gardens, and the arts.
