For five years, the American Library Association has partnered with the
Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago to sponsor Money Smart Week® @ your
library.  This national initiative between the two organizations provides
financial literacy programming to help members of your community better
manage their personal finances.

On Sunday, February 1, come learn how your library can participate in Money
Smart Week @ your library, April 18-25, 2015!  This program will be held
1:00-2:30 p.m. in McCormick Place West, W196c.

Libraries of all types can and do participate in Money Smart Week @ your
library, providing programming for all ages and all stages of life on
financial topics such as basic budgeting, managing student debt, teaching
financial literacy to teens, retirement planning, home purchasing, saving
money through couponing, and how to prevent identity theft.

In 2014, over 700 public, academic, school, and even prison libraries in 48
states participated.
