"I truly think that going through the SLI process as a new director has helped me to understand so many aspects of my job as it relates to my staff, my building, my community, and the relations among all of those things. I came into this job at a library that hadn't had a director for a few months; I had to figure a lot out as I went along. Working through the SLI process with our committee gave me small, manageable goals and allowed me to explore so many areas that I didn't have previous experience with.

Ron Kirsop joined us again for another webinar! 

This presentation show how the first 'outside of New York' Library to be certified have focused on sustainability in their programming and partnerships.
