November 4, 2025
1:15 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Libraries have long been trusted community anchors, connecting families with resources that spark learning, strengthen literacy, and build opportunity. This session, generously supported by PNC Bank, brings together leaders from the National Center for Families Learning (NCFL) and the Charlotte Mecklenburg Library for a dynamic, moderated discussion. Together, they will highlight innovative programs and community impact at Charlotte Mecklenburg Library, explore NCFL’s decades of work partnering with libraries nationwide to transform family learning, and share how collaboration with PNC has fueled this work. Attendees will gain insights into the unique role libraries play in multigenerational learning ecosystems, the power of cross-sector partnerships, and strategies to engage families more deeply in their communities.
