Mark your calendars for Peer Group! Our meeting will take place in person on Thursday, May 23 at Brightpoint Community College - Midlothian Campus in Richmond.
The one-day meeting will likely run from 9:30 AM – 3:30 p.m., and we intend to offer some level of hybrid participation for presenters and attendees who are not able to join us onsite. Lunch will be available for those attending in person.

• Call for proposals: March 25-April 5

Many of you are doing amazing work to advance library services and support students and faculty, both inside and outside of the library. Don't keep that to yourselves!
Present a talk, convene a panel, or share in a lightning round at Peer Group so we can learn and grow together.
