Libraries everywhere are being buffeted by the relentless change taking place around them. These changes and trends are influencing library user expectations. As a consequence, library users are re-evaluating what sort of services and resources should be available from the library, how the library should be organized, and how library resources should be accessed. Trends are also influencing the types of library programs and activities that users are seeking.

If libraries in Alaska are to remain relevant, libraries must be skilled in identifying:

• trends which could potentially impact future library services;
• trends which support our professional values;
• And trends which threaten our professional values.

The workshop will be held in Anchorage on March 4, 2020 at the APK Building in the Classroom
