This is an exciting time to be a librarian! But, when you earned your degree, nobody said that the library environment would be so ripe with change. Let us help you catch up and keep up with a pre-conference that will address evaluating information with Laura Sheets, and move on to impact & outcome evaluations with Cecilie Maynor and Betty Jo Jarvis. We’ll finish the afternoon with an interactive workshop offered by Miguel Figueroa from the Center for the Future of Libraries at the American Library Association. Entitled “From Futuring to Innovation” the session is designed to help you identify trends found in the Center for the Future of Libraries – as well as your own community insights and evidence – and think through positive innovations for the future of libraries.
