On May 4th at 7pm ET, beloved Children’s Book Author, Megan McDonald, will be hosted by the Northland Public Library for an exclusive video conferencing program. Megan McDonald was born and raised in the Pittsburgh Area and she worked at the Northland Library as a teenager.
The Carnegie Free Library of Beaver Falls is one of several interactive locations for this video conferencing event. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage in the live discussion as part of the Q&A portion of the program. Registration is required, seating is limited.
Part of the Carnegie Library of Beaver Falls’ Comprehensive Plan for Vision Transformation is the development of the Knowledge Exchange Room. Video Conferencing is part of the 21st century library experience and one piece of technology that will be made available for knowledge sharing. Additional renovations will include equipment for creating, storing and sharing content. Not only will this be used by the library for inclusion in programming, the library intends to make the resources available for businesses, social agencies, local organizations and government agencies. The opportunities are endless in the services the Carnegie Free Library of Beaver Falls will be able to provide. Board President Ron Main is the developmental catalyst of the Knowledge Exchange Room comments, “having the opportunity to work with the Northland Public Library team is exactly how we envision new services from the library; bringing teachers and learners together, regardless of distance, to engage in meaningful conversations that create new knowledge and deepen the learning experience. The Carnegie Free Library of Beaver Falls Knowledge Exchange Room is the destination and inspiration for our library’s vision, which is To Inspire and Empower Lifelong Learning and the Exchange of Knowledge.”
