    S1 E5 Bonus! Curbside: Dispatch From The Front Line

    S1 E4 Doing The Work: Research As Listening & Fuel For Action

    S1 E3 Safety & Delight: The Curbside Conversation

    Jen and Christina discuss all the facets of Curbside Service in a pandemic & why libraries are worried about their circulation stats (is our mission really still books? Our funding is still set up that way!) Is it possible *not* to offer physical items in some way right now? And if you have to do it, can you make it fun?

    S1 E2: Emergent Strategy For Our Brave New World

    What should our institutions look like as we reopen?

    S1 E1: Culture in the Age of COVID

    What is truly of value about your institution or organization? Jen and Christina discuss how people both inside and outside our cultural institutions view our purpose, and how that shapes expectations in peace times, and leads to opportunities to innovate in a crisis.
