Library Journal invites director-level leaders at public libraries to join us for our 2024 Directors’ Summit, being held Nov. 7-8 at Richland Public Library in Columbia, SC.
This annual day-and-a-half of interactive thought-leadership, learning and networking will spotlight ways that library leaders - often isolated in their work – are effectively tackling the many complex and difficult challenges of library management.
Topics for the event’s sessions and breakouts are curated by LJ’s editorial team based on a survey of event registrants, as well as input from the event’s advisory board of library directors. The agenda is currently under development so stay tuned! Click here to see last year’s program.
Who should attend: This event is exclusively for director-level leaders at public libraries. If you work in a different type of library and/or are in a leadership position with a different title and would like to request an invitation, please email us at ljevents@mediasourceinc.com.
If you have questions about the Summit, please email them to ljevents@mediasourceinc.com
