Americans for Libraries listening tour

Americans for Libraries Council has announced that Salinas, California would be the first stop in a listening tour to hear citizens' visions for the future of their community libraries and to learn about funding approaches in different regions of the country. A public forum on Saturday, October 8, 2005 at the National Steinbeck Center will kick off the listening tour. Salinas' community leaders and members of the public will be asked to express their views on the future needs for information, learning programs and civic space, and their expectations regarding the libraries' capacities to meet these needs
