As part of their IMLS grant, the Colorado State Library is offering Research Institute for Public Libraries Regionals, scaled-down versions of the national data boot camp, that provide the data and evaluation training necessary to begin using data to plan for your library’s future. These are open to registrants outside of the states below.

There are two RIPL regionals on the east coast as part of this grant.

• August 14-15, 2017:  RIPL Regional at Sunday River in Newry, Maine sponsored by the Maine State Library.  Info at: https://ripl.lrs.org/me2017/

• April 18-19, 2018: RIPL Regional in Utica, New York sponsored by the New York State Library.  Details will be made available closer to the event.

There is a great community of practice for participants that is a wonderful resource for ideas and sharing of expertise.
