It is important that library directors/staff completing the annual report for the first time attend a live training session with the Office of Commonwealth Libraries (OCL).  We have scheduled one training session to assist new library directors/staff. A recording of this training will be available on the PA Library Staff Academy through Niche Academy.  Veteran library directors are more than welcome to join this training; however, it will be geared toward individuals who have not completed the annual report in the past.

• Library Director training date/time:
  • Friday, January 24, 2025: 10 AM – 11:30 AM (Log into LibPAS to access the meeting link for this session)

To have the best experience, please review the 2024 Annual Report – PA Public Library Data Survey & Public Libraries Survey User Guide prior to joining the session.

The TEAMS meeting link was shared via email to library directors on Thursday, January 9, 2025.

For questions or the meeting link, please contact Amy Geisinger at ageisinger@pa.gov.
