Greg Peverill-Conti & Adam Zand ~ Biography
Greg Peverill-Conti and Adam Zand are the co-founders of the Library Land Project, a nonprofit whose mission is to explore, document, and promote the essential role of public libraries in our communities. The pair rediscovered their love of libraries when they needed "office space" as they started their PR agency, SharpOrange. Since then, libraries have become an increasingly important aspect of their lives. They have spoken on library topics in the media and at conferences across the United States.
Greg is a substitute reference librarian in Framingham, Mass. He is a trustee at Medway Public Library. He received his MLIS from the University of Alabama. Adam is on the building committee for the Thayer Memorial Library in Lancaster, Mass. Adam has an MBA from Northeastern University.
