Pondering Ritual and the Future of Libraries

Abstract

Libraries are about making connections between people and ideas. They are important community spaces. Rituals are ways that we connect as humans, and drives how people gather and use spaces. Technology is at a point where people are questioning our human connections and what it means to be connected. Join us in thinking about what is ritual and why it is important as we continue to build the future of libraries.This session is designed to have participants make explicit the rituals that support or hinder our internal and external place in our communities
