Episode 13: The Straight Download: Collaboration That Counts

Please note: this episode contains a few audio issues.   Recorded live from the Public Library Association Conference floor, Episode 13 of The Straight Download features a timely conversation about the future of public libraries during a period of cultural, technological, and political change. Hosts Ann Ford and Jeff Jankowski are joined by Jamar Rahming, CEO of the Cuyahoga County Public Library and incoming President of PLA. The episode explores how libraries can use digital platforms as meaningful engagement channels while underscoring the need for stronger alignment between libraries and vendors. Through deeper collaboration and strategic data partnerships, both can better navigate shifting patron expectations and an evolving publishing landscape.
