The ongoing digital revolution means that libraries are redefining the role they play in the communities they serve. Continual tightening of budgets means that libraries are also faced with having to increasingly justify that role. Mary will teach two four-hour courses to the Meridian, Northeast, Panhandle and Republic Valley Library Systems about how libraries can define their evolving role in this changing world and how to communicate that role in order to strengthen their long term viability and success.

Mary has been with Bozell since 2004 and is a business and engagement developer. Her work includes strategic planning and development for a variety of clients.
