DPLA Community/Open Board Meeting Looks Interesting

Some thoughtful library leaders will be on a panel at the quarterly DPLA Community and Open Board Meeting on April 9, 2 pm Eastern Time. Register here.

“With expanded vaccine access, many of us have begun to conceive of what our post-Covid worlds might look like. These visions are necessarily colored by all that we have learned during the last year—from the benefits of flexible working arrangements to the urgent need to finally dismantle systemic racism in our work. We’ll be joined by:

  • Timothy Cherubini, executive director of COSLA (Chief Officers of State Library Agencies)

  • Crosby Kemper, director of the Institute of Museum and Library Services

  • Mary Lee Kennedy, executive director of the Association of Research Libraries

  • Rachel Vagts, president of the Society of American Archivists

We’ll talk about the opportunities they see for positive change and growth in the coming year, as well as give an update on what’s next for DPLA.”
