 | Registration Now Open for Literacy Redefined!
Early-Bird Discount Available
We are pleased to announce that registration is now open for Library Journal's 4-week online course, Literacy Redefined. Starting on September 27, this immersive course will address literacy in its widest sense—digital, media/information, civic, reading readiness, visual, multicultural, and health literacy—and will identify tools for leveraging partnerships to fuel programming and funding.
Over the course of four weeks, participants will engage with presenters via live video stream, visual presentations, and chats, and workshop practical ideas in groups, with guidance from an advisor, to map out your own literacy programs or initiatives. You’ll leave with well-developed literacy strategies designed to make a lasting impact on your community.
Register by July 14 to save 25% off the standard rate of the course!
