Join us in Columbia, SC, for a day-long collaborative event
and start planning the library of the future today.

Hosted by Library Journal in partnership with the Richland Library—at its ambitious Main Library renovation—this installment of our library building and design event will bring you the latest trends in library design. Dig deep with architects, librarians, and vendors to explore building / renovating / retrofitting spaces both large and small that will redefine the relationship with your users and engage your community.

This full-day think tank provides expert panel discussions with architects and librarians, as well as hands-on, architect-led breakout sessions dealing with real-life design challenges submitted in advance by you and your fellow attendees and a keynote from Richland Library's Melanie Huggins on Design Think and the Studio Model.

Come prepared to pitch your questions to architects in Design Consultations or attend a Power Session on Fundraising with EveryLibrary's John Chrastka.

There will be plenty of face time and networking opportunities throughout the day with colleagues, too.

Arrive early on May 2, 2019 for an optional afternoon tour of Richland libraries, including Ballentine, St. Andrews, Wheatley, and Main, all featuring the studio model. 

Are there any design challenges that your library currently faces?
Register before Friday, March 22 to be eligible to have your library featured in an architect-led breakout session.
