Hi everyone! Liz Cammilleri and Michael Caligiuri are the 2023-24 co-chairs for the Central Region. We are busy behind the scenes trying to get meetings and activities planned. If you have any specific topics for meetings, please let us know. We'd like to highlight Central Region news and events here, so please share! 

​We would love to showcase positive news, best practices, programming and activities happening in our libraries. Please send photos, links and other information that we can share on this Central Area website. If you have events or activities planned that can be shared with Central Area members, please send that information throughout the year. Our emails are linked above.
