Rural Library Networks: Accelerating Rural Education Outcomes
A Session by Regina R. Washington (Director of Rural Impact Networks, Partners for Education)
About this Session
Rural Library Network is a cradle to career initiative recognizing the unique role of librarians to engage the community, lead efforts to address barriers to successful rural education outcomes, provide relevant programs to advance rural education, and serve as a resource hub. This session will engage the participants with a PowerPoint slide presentation and a discussion related to 1) current state of reading outcomes; 2) reflect on the value of the network; 3) collective impact strategies for change; and 4) resources for community engagement.
