Join us for a virtual conversation with national experts in library-based social work! Libraries are anchors in many communities, increasingly going beyond their traditional roles to serve the needs of neighborhoods in unique ways. This two-part conversation will look at how libraries across the country and here in New York have brought social workers into their branches, how that policy trend has developed in different places, and what the future of social workers in libraries may look like.
NYU McSilver’s Director of Evaluation Ashley Fuss will moderate these dynamic discussions. Please register to attend via Zoom.
