Directions
This meet-up is open to all NJ library staff -- not just API members!
Does your library serve large Asian & Pacific Islander (API) populations, or have you ever wondered what to do at an API restaurant? Come and network with your Asian & Pacific Islander colleagues, ask questions, and enjoy informal conversations over some delicious finger food!
Join us for a special two-hour meet-up to gain fun insights (though no guarantee they’ll be useful!) and etiquette tips about API culture, all while taking part in interactive activities.
Due to limited space and food preparation, registration is limited to 75 people. Registration is now closed for this in-person meet-up. If you missed the deadline, please email us at Email.
This meet-up is hosted by South Plainfield Public Library, MentorNJ, and LibraryLinkNJ

This is simply our API meet-up group’s regular monthly gathering, held in person instead of virtually.
