Join Us For Our May Future Ready Librarian Webinar....Planning for Excellence in Your Library Program Using the Future Ready Librarian Framework

Friends, we hope you can join us for our upcoming Future Ready Librarians webinar, Planning for Excellence in Your Library Program Using the Future Ready Librarian Framework. 

In Wisconsin, having a district library plan approved by the school board is a legislative requirement, but following a rule does not invite inspiration or provide a complete picture of why this work needs to be done. We have created a community of school librarians who inspire and guide each other through a process of library planning. Working through the creation and implementation of library plans aligns the library program with school and district needs and creates a pathway for advocacy, building positive relationships, and increasing the visibility and value of library programs throughout our state.
