Community
SWON hosts live and virtual networking and community-building opportunities throughout the year for library staff in Southwest Ohio and Northern Kentucky to get to know one another. Share inspirations and frustrations, brainstorm, get new ideas, and help SWON generate better training and opportunities for you and your colleagues in the future.
All networking Events are always free and welcome to all!
