Agenda

Prepare for a day of inspiration, learning, and connection with a fantastic lineup of speakers and presenters. Our keynote speaker, JaMarr John Johnson, will entertain and inspire with his unique blend of humor and transformational insight. A passionate advocate for libraries, JaMarr promises to make you laugh, cry, think, and take notes!

We’re also honored to have Dr. Thymai Dong-Sheehan, founder of Innervate2Educate Consulting, L.L.C., as our closing speaker. Dr. Dong-Sheehan’s work invites us to look inward individually so we can transform collectively, offering profound insights rooted in the principles of adult learning.

Throughout the day, several TLA members will present on diverse topics ranging from AI to community engagement, ensuring there’s something for everyone.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn, connect, and grow with colleagues from across the district. Register now and join us for a day of growth and transformation!
