Just want to pass along the newest information about the upcoming
Money Smart Week @ Your Library April 4-11, 2020. Join your fellow Connecticut librarians in bringing financial programming to the kids, teens, adults, and seniors in your communities. It’s a perfect time to start planning your programs and
activities for that week as well as for all of 2020!
Best,

To MSW Librarians:
Happy New Year! Wanted to check-in early this year to thank all of you for providing financial literacy programming in your community, especially during Money Smart Week!
And to share a couple of things with you. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) will be conducting a survey on use of financial resources that will open in late January. We’ll be sending the message on the survey in a couple
of weeks. It is a short survey (10 minutes) so hope many of you will take time to complete it to help get some good national data.
And ALA recently has published a new title “Rainy Day Ready: Financial Literacy Programs and Tools” that may be of interest.
