Tenn-Share Resource Sharing Roundtable
Tenn-Share Resource Sharing Roundtable
March 1, 202312:00 pm - 12:30 pm
This meeting is open to folks who work at any library type that does interlibrary loan or resource sharing in the state! Join with your colleagues as we work to share about our issues and develop best practices for resource sharing in Tennessee.
Learn more about Library Speakers Consortium, an organization working to bring regular author events to elementary schools. For a fee, each school would pay to access 2-3 interactive children’s author events each month, livestreamed on a microsite custom-branded for each school. Pricing is based on the size of the school with the goal of making the program accessible for communities of all sizes across the state. Come learn about this exciting opportunity to increase access to bestselling children’s authors for your students.
Please also note that there is special 50% off pricing for schools that join for the program launch so this may be worth exploring sooner rather than later if it is of potential interest. Presented by Zach Rubin (Library Speaker Consortium).
