When the spring semester comes to an end, do you find you’re in the mood to get out, to see new sights, to explore a different terrain? The CARLI Public Services Working Group (PSWG) invites you to come along for the ride as we visit five CARLI libraries on three different days. These visits will go well beyond simple tours of the host libraries. They are designed to encourage dialogue about public services practices, problems, and ideas. You’ll have ample opportunities to network with your peers, to learn about the host libraries’ public services practices, and to share experiences from your home library. Refreshments will be provided.

Please note, you need to register for each session you wish to attend, even if they are on the same day.
