On September 23, DFA hosted its first Public Speaker Series event for 2026-2027. The presentation was titled, "Libraries as a Public Good: Supporting Inclusive and Reslient Communities". Our panelists - DFA Members Louise Spiteri, Stacy Allison-Cassin and Hannah Rosborough - shared insightful presentations on the history of public libraries and the unique and important role they play in society. You can listen to the presentation here. Our next Public Speaker Series event will look at AI and its use in post-secondary education. Please join us on Wednesday, November 3, 2026.
