Webinar: Book Clubs – One Way to Connect in Times of Social Distancing

August 10, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am EDT

Webinar Description:

Virtual Book Clubs can be the great connector between the library and diverse members in the community, even during the time of little human interaction. Learn tips and best practices to reduce uncertainty and build confidence in conducting a virtual book club, with marginalized populations: individuals experiencing homelessness, youthful offenders, and older adults.
