The Literacy Teacher's Life

Libraries and the Communities that They Serve: A Conversation with ALA President Emily Drabinski EP 33


Listen Later

The American Library Association is hosting an event this month! It's the LibLearnX Conference and joining me to discuss the conference is the current ALA President, Emily Drabinski.

Emily talks about the conference and what to expect. There are both in-person and digital options to attend, so if you are not able to travel to Baltimore, you can still attend the different sessions. There are many relevant topics being addressed in the sessions: AI, privacy issues with younger students, building partnerships between schools and libraries – are just a few.

Emily speaks about the issues that libraries are facing and she offers an update on book bans in the U.S. She also speaks about the crucial role that libraries play in communities and the resources that they provide - these extend beyond books!
