Thursday, November 29, 2018 ♦ 3:00 pm Eastern ♦ 60 minutes Registration

To do that, our identity, our education, our organizations, and our work is changing. Learn how library staff are becoming change agents to help Topeka and Shawnee County Public Library, the 2016 Gale/LJ Library of the Year, become an essential asset in its community.
