Small & Rural Libraries: The Heart of Innovation

Join the Association for Rural & Small Libraries (ARSL) in a celebration of innovation and creativity within our community despite working with budget limitations and with smaller teams. With nearly 90% of public libraries in New England states serving rural and/or small populations as of 2020, there's a lot to celebrate! Attendees will learn about programs and approaches that don't require special funding or staffing in order to duplicate, and will walk away with practical, actionable ideas they can take back to their libraries with no scaling down required.
