Happening this Friday, May 9, 2025. There's still time to register!
Through engaging sessions and open discussions, this conference aims to connect and reconnect librarians, offering a platform to share insights, exchange ideas, and inspire innovation in our collective work. Together, we can create a stronger network that supports student success and enhances the role of libraries in our institutions.
This project is made possible in part by federal funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services administered by the Pennsylvania Department of Education, Office of Commonwealth Libraries
