People are talking about Turning the Page 2.0







"I cannot recommend it highly enough. It has changed not just how I advocate for our library, but how I think about things here in general. It is a good investment of time and energy."

"This course is further honing my public speaking, relationship building, and 'asking' skills."

"It was one of the best library-related online experiences I've had."
