All are welcome at the Black Caucus of the Maryland Library Association (BCMLA) meetup! Drop in and mingle with members and fellow conference attendees.
Join fellow conference attendees for a guided stroll through Cambridge’s “most haunted” mile. Drawn from the Edward H. Nabb Research Center’s folklore collection, this one-hour walk brings to life the documented legends of soldiers, oystermen, governors, and everyday townspeople whose stories still echo through the city. Explore notable sites including Christ Church and its graveyard, the Dorchester County Courthouse, Long Wharf, and several historic homes. The tour begins at the Dorchester County Courthouse and follows a well-lit, one-mile route perfect for an evening adventure.

Bring your mat with you and join us to kick off your morning with an hour of yoga on Manor Lawn (the green space directly outside of Michener’s). Warm up both your body and mind before plunging into your conference sessions. The class is designed to be suitable for all body types and skill levels and should leave you relaxed and refreshed. Note: In the case of inclement weather, the class will be held indoors.
After Thursday conference sessions, join PSD members in the lounge as we discuss sessions attended and how our sponsored programs went. A great opportunity to network and unwind from the day.
