<strong>Are you dreaming of opening a seed library, planning on opening, or recently opened?</strong><span> We’re trying something new for our 12th Seed Library Conference. This year, we will hold three separate conferences! The first one will be Saturday,
 February 14th (because we love seeds) and will be for communities that are planning to start, or have recently opened, seed libraries. We’ll feature three presenters, each offering a 20-minute talk followed by 10 minutes of Q&A. We’ll finish with 30 minutes
 in breakout rooms to connect and share ideas. </span><br>
