Let’s break the ice and talk about money. Financial literacy is essential to personal success, but how can academic libraries help their users develop financial literacy skills? Join the C&CS and PA Forward’s Financial Literacy Team, represented by Emily Mross, as we discuss Money Smart Week, ALA’s partnership with the Federal Reserve Bank to help provide financial literacy workshops and trainings. A variety of variety of these partnerships between libraries and banks have been created. Link to Money Smart Week– http://www.ala.org/aboutala/offices/money-smart-week

Emily has been working with personal banker Olivia Sullivan at FNB to create programs and workshops for her students on this topic. Olivia works with employers and organizations to provide financial literacy education that targets consumer’s key money questions and provides them with practical strategies for being smarter about money. Emily’s full bio can be found here from her previous presentation with us.
