As library budgets tighten and community needs expand, how do we ensure equitable access to knowledge remains at the heart of our mission? Traditional interlibrary loan processes – often costly and time-consuming – can create unnecessary barriers between resources and the people who need them most.

Join your peers for a webinar where we'll explore how innovative resource sharing solutions like Rapido and Rapido Consortial Borrowing are breaking down barriers and creating more equitable access to knowledge across library communities while preserving local autonomy and workflows.

Learn from library leaders who will share:

• How they're creating more equitable access to materials by removing traditional barriers between libraries
• Ways they're expanding community access to resources while reducing costs and managing staff time
• Their vision for inclusive resource sharing that ensures every community member can access the materials they need

Discover how strategic collaboration across libraries can help ensure all community members have access to the resources they need, when they need them through this engaging live webcast.

Presenters:

Beau Case, Inaugural Dean of University Libraries, University of Central Florida

Amy Pawlowski, Executive Director, OhioLINK

Migell Acosta, Library Director, San Diego County
