Partnering for Strong Communities: SDPB and Libraries

Thursday October 1, 2026 3:30pm - 4:10pm CDT

Ramkota Pierre

Join SDPB to discover how our free educational tools and community engagement resources can help you build a "South Dakota Strong" library. In this session, we will explore free, high-quality educational resources and outreach opportunities from SDPB and PBS on topics like SD history and culture, Native American studies, local art, science, literacy, and more. We will discuss practical ways SDPB can collaborate with your library on events and programming to maximize your impact for patrons of all ages and interests. Learn how to leverage statewide resources to meet your local needs and strengthen the connection between your library and your community.
