A strong library can strengthen the core of the whole community.

This starts with an exceptional staff and a commitment to providing the best possible services based on the unique needs of the community. What constitutes a core service can vary from one town to the next, but the essential skills of the profession are tied to a set of core competencies. By focusing on these core competencies, the 2018 Convention and Expo will inspire new ways to explore and strengthen your library’s core services and provide an opportunity for you to enhance your knowledge and skills to the meet the challenges we face now and in the future. Registration opens July 2018!
