The libraries of the past are gone. So what are they now?
When: 9-10 a.m.
Where: SIE 2015 | Second Floor
Moderator: Kevin Simpson
Remember when a library’s search engine was its card catalog? A lot has changed since then — from the materials to the technology to the scope of libraries’ very mission. Sun writer and book editor Kevin Simpson moderates a panel of experts for a conversation about the changes — and challenges — to a venerable American institution.
Michelle Jeske has been the Denver City Librarian (or Executive Director) since 2015, leading the 27 locations of the city’s library system that serves more than 4.4 million visitors each year. She has worked for the Denver Public Library since 2001 in a variety of capacities, and previously worked with both the San Antonio Public Library and New York Public Library. Jeske has been honored as a Public Library Association Leadership Fellow, Colorado Librarian of the Year and Library Journal Mover and Shaker.
