Date: Wednesday, May 03, 2023
Time: 3:00 PM – 5:30 PM
Place: Gloversville Public Library, also virtually
Would you like to learn strategies for increasing community engagement and library use? Do you wish you had more input into how MVLS serves member libraries? Could you use a model to follow for making community engagement and planning an ongoing activity in your library? Do your trustees need an easy way to complete the state mandated 2-hour annual trustee training requirement?
Please join us at the MVLS Spring Symposium. In person at the Gloversville Public Library, the event will also be offered virtually for those who cannot attend in person.
