In this presentation, we will explore the powerful impact that community engagement strategies have on libraries and how they can lead to mutual benefits for both the library and its surrounding community. Can community engagement help us reach our potential and does community engagement assist in collecting the stories to support the value of libraries?

This presentation aims to inspire all library professionals to harness the power of community engagement to redefine their role and maximize their impact. By actively involving the community in library initiatives, library professionals can empower their libraries to become vibrant hubs of learning, innovation, and social connection.
