by SWAN Communications

Hello everyone, We are planning our 2023 calendar for our library user groups and have created a survey to gauge membership interest in additional groups. The link to the survey is on the news post below. https://support.swanlibraries.net/news/2022-09/91702 For background, during our user group overview session at the SWAN Expo held this summer, there was expressed interest and suggestions from attendees in additional user groups. Our user groups are member-led, so the survey does seek individuals interested in being a chair or co-chair of the group.
