NAPLE Forum 2021

Please join us for the NAPLE Forum 2021 where we will be discussing the impact of public libraries as we emerge from the pandemic period, and looking over the horizon to see what’s next for the public library sector in the next 12 months.

Participation is open to everyone with an interest in the future of public libraries in Europe.

Please register for the event and a link for participation will be sent to you via email.
