Polk County Public Library Children’s librarian, Joy Sharp, has been awarded a full scholarship to attend the Association for Rural and Small Libraries (ARSL) conference in Raleigh, N.C.
ARSL supports rural and small libraries and strives to create resources and services that address national, state, and local priorities for libraries situated in rural communities.
This year’s conference, held Sept. 26-29, will feature a reception in the state capitol building to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the State Library of North Carolina.
The scholarship requires Sharp to blog about her experiences on the state and ARSL list servers.
