To Chamber Members and Friends of the Irish Chamber:

On Sunday, January 17th, one of our fellow Chamber members and also a board member, Siobhan Reardon, president and director of The Free Library of Philadelphia, was a guest on WHYY’s excellent program, The Pulse, about the future of Libraries, which you can find the link below.

I highly recommend listening, which you can do at the link.  It really gave me a whole new perspective on libraries, and it sounds like great things are happening at The Free Library.

I hope you will check it out and I think you will be as impressed as I was.  And thanks to WHYY for bringing such a worthwhile topic to light.

Best regards,

Bill
