1:00 PM - Aspen Institute: Re-Envisioning Public Libraries - CT Libraries Dialogues<http://evanced.info/cslib/evanced/eventsignup.asp?ID=5203&rts=&disptype=&ret=eventcalendar.asp&pointer=&returnToSearch=&num=0&ad=&dt=mo&mo=2/1/2015&df=calendar&EventType=ALL&Lib=&AgeGroup=&LangType=0&WindowMode=&noheader=&lad=&pub=1&nopub=&page=&pgdisp=> (Middlebury)
We are pleased to announce that Connecticut has been selected as a pilot state for the Aspen Institute: Rising to the Challenge: Re-Envision Public Libraries Dialogue. Setting the stage for a statewide event, the Division of Library Development is bringing the dialogue first to Connecticut Libraries. We want to hear how your library, your community, and your local policy makers are "rising to the challenge" to re-envision library service in your community. It is our hope that by sharing ideas, libraries throughout the state can fully realize a new vision for library service in Connecticut. Librarians, Trustees, Friends, community engagers, lawmakers are all welcome to join the conversation.
