On Monday, July 27, the 10-day Holding Space virtual tour kicks off at the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C.

 

Join ALA President Julius C. Jefferson, Jr. as he meets with library leaders, state and local partners, elected officials, and other community influencers in cities across the country to listen and learn as well as elevate the innovative work of libraries.

 

Each community discussion will explore local and national solutions to issues and feature deep dives into an area of library service, including workforce development programs, children and family services, outreach to rural residents, and broadband for Tribal communities.
