President & CEO Chad Helton lays out how Baltimore’s flagship public‑library system is reinventing itself for a 21st‑century city.
- Small‑town roots to big‑city stacks—what shaped his collaborative leadership style
- Building a “library for everyone”: equity, free access, and programs that change lives
- Community engagement that goes beyond books—tech hubs, social‑service partners, street‑level outreach
- Roadblocks (funding, perception, politics) and the wins that keep the team moving
- A blueprint other public libraries can borrow to stay vital in the digital age
Want a clear look at civic leadership and the future of public knowledge spaces? Press play.
