Commitment, Care, & Creativity
Library Journal and School Library Journal are thrilled to announce that we will be hosting our annual, in-person Public Library Youth Services Leadership Summit on May 29 (full-day) and 30 (half-day) at the Plainview-Old Bethpage Public Library in Plainview, NY.
We invite you to join current and aspiring youth services innovators and other public library leaders from across the country to delve into the important and impactful work shaping library services. Learn about cutting-edge, effective, and actionable best practices; gain inspiration for your own leadership path; and explore the potential of youth services as we move our communities and profession forward, through whatever comes next, with commitment, care, and creativity.
This year’s agenda will cover the following topics:
Community Partnerships
Early Literacy
Out-of-School Engagement
Teens, Technology, & Libraries
Climate Change & Libraries
Envisioning Leadership

Accepted presenters will be allotted five minutes to deliver their idea during our ‘fast-learning’ segment, and their registration fee will be refunded. Deadline for proposal submissions is April 1.
Come to Learn. Come to Share. Come to Support and Be Supported. Come to Connect. And come to Grow as a Leader.
