As information becomes more accessible, and more complicated, libraries are taking on an increasingly vital role. How do librarians help communities navigate misinformation and AI-driven content? What pressures are shaping which books and resources remain available? And in a world where so much is online, who do libraries serve and why do physical spaces still matter? As we welcome our new library to the region, we'll learn more about what this exciting community resource brings to all of us.
Join us for a thoughtful conversation on the evolving role of libraries, the realities of censorship and intellectual freedom, and what the library of 2030 could look like. From digital access and funding models to community trust and future challenges, this forum will explore the tradeoffs shaping one of our most essential public institutions.
