ULC Membership 101: Tools & Offerings You Don’t Want to Miss

Join the Urban Libraries Council team for a 45-minute walkthrough of the tools, connections, and opportunities available to you and your library right now. Whether you are brand new to ULC or a longtime member looking to reengage, this session will help you tap into the full breadth of your benefits and chart a clear path for involvement in the year ahead.

During this interactive session, we’ll explore:

• How to plug into Member Communities to exchange ideas, solve challenges, and build meaningful peer connections
• Current initiatives, leadership cohorts, and strategic priorities shaping ULC’s work this year
• What’s available now in ULC Academy, and what additional courses will be offered in 2026
• A guided look at the Data Hive, the annual Library Insights Survey, and the practical tools designed to help you demonstrate and strengthen your library’s impact
• Advocacy updates and how ULC is elevating the voice of urban libraries nationwide and directing the conversation on the e-books pricing crisis
• Professional development and networking opportunities for leaders at every level

Walk away with a clear understanding of where to engage, how to participate, and how to make ULC work for you and your team. Register today to reserve your spot. The session will be recorded and shared with all registrants.
