A Community Conversation About Libraries: Moving From Present to Future

Location: Kelvin Smith Library, Case Western Reserve University, 11055 Euclid Avenue

This event is a “Soul of Cleveland” dialog.

As demographics, technology, and forms of information dissemination constantly change, libraries of all types must continually adapt to new user behaviors and expectations, and do so within limited resources.  Cleveland is extraordinarily blessed; we have heavily used and nationally recognized public and academic libraries. 

At this event, the leaders of the three largest libraries will serve as a panel to provide a stimulating overview of the issues and opportunities for their respective libraries, and engage with the audience in a dialog to explore what might be coming next.
