Pack your backpack and grab your trail mix – SpringyCamp for Public Libraries is coming up on Thursday, October 1 at 12pm - 3:30pm ET. This day of SpringyCamp is dedicated to the public libraries that serve our communities. Join us to learn from library colleagues around the world as they share how they're using Springshare Tools to support patrons and strengthen library service!
SpringyCamp is our interactive online conference where real Springshare users showcase innovative ways they’re leveraging Springy Tools in their libraries. Tune in to discover inspiring ideas and practical takeaways – without having to apply bug spray.
Don't work for a public library? You can still gain insights from our Public Libraries Day, but we have two days packed with sessions designed for All Libraries in November!
You won't want to miss our first presentation of the day, Building Resilient Libraries: Responding to Changing Patron Needs Through People, Programs, and Partnerships. Dr. Beth Wahler, library consultant and researcher, will show you how to improve patron outcomes while fostering a healthy workplace.
For every person who attends live, Springshare will donate $1 to the Sustainable Libraries Initiative. Help us support a more sustainable future by joining us at SpringyCamp!
