Featured Program:  Altered Patron Expectations After A Year of Upheaval 
To say the past year was one of disruption would be an understatement! The COVID-19 pandemic has caused pervasive alterations in people’s daily lives, impacting everything from schooling to how we buy groceries. In the face of this upheaval, libraries face altered patron expectations. With this in mind, what are the implications for libraries as we seek to thrive in a changing environment? 
 
Learning Objectives: 
  • Attendees will understand recent changes to patron behavior and service expectations. 
  • Attendees will identify new program and service opportunities in our present environment. 
  • Attendees will discover what service trends to expect in the coming years.
