Last Week - Alicia Cartwright, 21st Century Library
Alicia joined us from the Arapahoe County Library District; with a professional background in consulting and marketing she is passionate about research and teaching clients the skills necessary to use library resources to start and grow their businesses. Libraries have made "custom moves to serve the community in the ways they want to be serviced". It's no longer just a place to check out books. Look for "Ask the Librarian" link on website or call 303-LIBRARY to ask questions.
