READS Fall Conference 2023
Mark your calendars for the READS Fall Conference! Join us on Friday, October 13th, at the Common Man in Plymouth, NH, for an insightful day of professional development that delves into the vital role of libraries in facing political and social challenges head-on. In an increasingly divided world, libraries have become centers of community conversation and controversy. We aim to equip librarians and library staff with practical strategies to handle these challenges candidly, respectfully, and effectively. We can't wait to see you there! |
