Abstract: As libraries shape their futures and adapt to the future needs of their communities, what are the near and long-term trends that point to our brightest opportunities? How can libraries support our global communities? Engage in conversations with civic, social and education innovators as they share their visions for libraries of the future. This dialogue will help bring our best thinking together.
