The Annual Institute on the Library as Place is a must-attend event for anyone involved in library space planning and design. Bringing together architects, librarians, and other experts from across the country, this year’s theme, “Tools of Engagement,” will focus on community engagement challenges and successes in library building and renovation projects of all sizes. Join in on thoughtful case studies, lightning talks on specialty topics, architect consultation, and resource investigation to infuse your library with purpose and energy, and to bring about greater connection, increased patron satisfaction, and enhanced library culture and infrastructure practices.
Whether you’re a seasoned architect looking to expand your skillset or a librarian eager to stay on top of the latest trends, this conference is the perfect chance to network with peers, gain valuable insights, and take your library space to the next level.
