Agenda: Attracting the Lost Demographic
Join us at the Smithtown Library where we will have a discussion regarding attracting 20 and 30 something patrons. Library use by this demographic declines after people complete their educations and they do not traditionally return to the library until they start to have children. How do we attract this demographic after they complete school and before they start a family? What technology can we offer to attract this group of people?
Guest speaker: Chris DeCristofaro
The Smithtown Library will also offer a demonstration of their “Learn Lab” computer training center.
Hope to see you all there!!!
