The North Bend Public Library is offering a three-part workshop on media literacy for teens and adults on the first Saturdays of April, May, and June. During each session, facilitator Liam Gleason will lead a conversation focusing on the tools to navigate today’s complex media landscape and to act against misinformation and disinformation. Each session is designed to be engaging, inclusive, and politically neutral. The workshop is free to attend, and lunch will be provided.
