MAKE EDITS TO THIS SECTION
While we're in Philly together, everyone will have the opportunity to talk about what they've learned and what they want to take from LFI. Lots of people use this time to talk about what they want to implement in their libraries. You can do this solo, or we can help you form a small group of others who are thinking along the same lines. Here are some examples of what people opt to do after LFI (but you should do what you want).
- A privacy class for a specific audience
- A privacy program that isn't a class
- A display about privacy or intellectual freedom
- A flyer or poster about a privacy concept
- A staff training on privacy or intellectual freedom
- Something focused on privacy work outside of the library walls, like a letter to a legislator
