[Michlib-l] Save the Date! Research Institute for Public Libraries (RIPL) July 23-26, 2023

[White, Shannon (MDE)]

Are you ready for a data adventure?

We're excited to announce that the next Research Institute for Public Libraries (RIPL) national event will occur July 23-26, 2023 in Madison, Wisconsin.

RIPL began in 2015 as an immersive, bootcamp-style event for public library staff to learn practical methods for gathering, analyzing, and using data for planning, management, and communicating impact. Now, after 4 national events and more than 25 regional events, it's time for the next wave.

At the 2023 national event, we will debut a new format, tailored to meeting the needs of those just getting started with data and evaluation as well as data geeks, and for people new to RIPL as well as RIPL alumni. Longer breakout sessions (2.5 hours) will enable participants to explore topics in more depth. What's not changing? Hands-on, experiential learning; an immersive, camp-like experience; and the opportunity to connect with instructors and library staff from around the US and beyond who are passionate about creating data-powered libraries.

Registration will open February 13, 2023.
This conference registration fills up very quickly.  If you are interested in attending be sure to mark your calendars and have your finger on the keys February 13. Don't forget you can also apply for a CE Stipend from LM to help support out of state professional development as well.
