The Palo Alto Dialogue on Library and Community Services is a forum designed to bring together leaders from the civic, business, education and government sectors to address the strategic opportunities presented by the changing role of public libraries in an increasingly diverse, information-rich and networked world. Our focus will be to explore how the community of Palo Alto can develop and leverage the library and its key assets to advance community goals and priorities in sustainable ways.  The goal of the Dialogue is to develop a set of actionable recommendations to strengthen and transform the Palo Alto Library for the future, including through the development of strategic partnerships with public and private entities.
