About This Event

Southwest Adult Programmers (SWAP) Meeting to be held at Tinley Park Public Library. An opportunity for public library staff to share adult program recommendations and exchange presenter/performer contact information. It's also a chance to network and to address questions or concerns related to adult programming in public library settings. Each quarter we meet at a different public library. 

Our quarterly Southwest Adult Programmers Meeting is taking place at Tinley Park Public Library on Wednesday, September 2, 2026 from 10:00am-12:00pm. Light refreshments will be provided by our host library. The meeting will conclude with an optional tour by our host Wendy Babjak of the Tinley Park Public Library. 

In preparation for the SWAP meeting, please bring a printed list of 3 (preferably recent) adult program recommendations. The list should include the program title, date, attendance number, cost, and presenter/performer contact information (phone, email, website). Please write a few sentences review about the presenter and program (i.e., what you appreciated, how it benefited your community, a summation of patron responses etc.)

Bring your library's upcoming/most recent newsletter, calendars or program guides. 
I will reach out a week or so before the meeting to give everyone an estimated count of how many copies to bring.

SWAP Meeting Location: Tinley Park Public Library: Address 7851 Timber Dr, Tinley Park, IL 60477 (Meeting Room TBD-please ask staff upon arrival or look for a directional sign.)

There is a large parking lot available to visitors. Please don't hesitate to reach out with questions!
