Outreach & Communication

Our Beyond the Page theme for the year is "Access & Opportunity." We hope to attract new audiences to the Libraries, promote our special collections, and develop new partnerships.

This year we will also develop our series of programs for the new building.

Toward both of these ends, a Public Programming Working Group was formed in July. The group will help develop programs, create and develop partnerships within the Libraries (connecting different campuses, for instance) at Temple and beyond, and assess our current programming offerings.
