Webcast Description

Many libraries throughout the state have just completed their community assessments for the California State Library’s recent initiative -Transforming Life After 50: Libraries and Baby Boomers.  How to utilize Boomer talent and experience in volunteer roles that support libraries and build communities was a priority in most library assessments.

Join the California State Library’s Carla Lehn Tuesday, July 22, from noon to 1 pm for a live webcast, sponsored by the Transforming Life After 50 Initiative, which will address how libraries can re-engineer volunteerism to align with the desire and potential of boomers? Whether you have participated in the Transforming Life After 50 initiative or not, we encourage your participation.

For more information about the Transforming Life After 50 Initiative, please contact Suzanne Flint at (916) 651-9796 or email at sflint@library.ca.gov.
