DESCRIPTION:Public libraries are playing an increasingly important role in helping communities navigate today’s complex information landscape. From supporting access to trustworthy news sources to helping patrons build critical media literacy skills\, library workers are meeting growing needs amid rapidly changing technologies\, formats\, and user behaviors. \nJoin the Public Library Association (PLA) and PressReader for a webinar exploring key findings from the new report\, News Access and Media Literacy in Public Libraries.
