Hello SWAN member libraries & staff-- SWAN is in the process of developing its five-year strategic plan, and we invite you to contribute your input on the organization's future direction. There are three upcoming in-person events at different library locations with facilitated discussions led by SWAN Board members Ridgeway Burns (Itasca), Jennifer Cottrill (Midlothian), and Zach Musil (Tinley Park). These events are open to all. We only ask that you register so we can probably plan for the event. Thursday, April 23rd 2:30 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. https://librarylearning.org/event/2026-04-23/swan-membership-strategic-plann...
