In the spirit of resource sharing, the KLF will regularly organize programs and events so that member libraries don’t have to – all they have to do is invite their patrons to attend
Thriving Together
The KLF is organizing a staff training day on June 13, 2025 at the Trail Public Library. The event is called “Thriving Together: Individual and Team Wellness.” Join us for a day of professional development, including a presentation by Andrea Freeman!
