Event Description:
For many, the Public Library remains a monument of learning with vast collections of knowledge available to all in its collections. However, communities with Public Libraries reap the benefits of contributions to the local economy through workforce preparation, small business support, and a large return on investment. Learn how your business and community is positively impacted by your Public Library and how you can benefit by using its multitude of resources.
