In
a challenging environment for libraries of all stripes, how can art
librarians advocate for the importance of our libraries and
services? This webinar will discuss what we can do to strengthen
our libraries, including how we communicate their value, demonstrate
their importance, and assess their impact. Past ALA president
Patricia Glass Schuman will discuss her nationally recognized work
on library advocacy. Librarians Cynthia Frank and Patricia Cossard
from the University of Maryland will present their ongoing efforts
to prevent the closure of both the art and the architecture
libraries there. Patrick Tomlin, chair of the ARLIS/NA Public
Policy Committee, will discuss the group’s work to promote
advocacy.
This Webinar is a joint presentation of the Professional
Development Education Subcommittee and the Public Policy Committee
