Join us for the next NCompass Live, ‘Engaging Your Community’, on Wednesday, August 1, 10:00am – 11:00am CT.
Participants will hear how the Rochester Public Library District has engaged its community with patron-driven programs. Our outreach has included creating a donation center, summer recreation, farmers market and a seed library. Participants will learn best practices and how to replicate similar programs in their community. We will share our secret to success: you must leave your physical building to reach your entire community!
Presenter: Janet McAllister, Director, Rochester (IL) Public Library District.
