We Learn From Each Other – Bookmobiles and Mobile Outreach in Virginia Public Libraries Tuesday, April 20th, 1:00 – 2:00 PM Join us for a panel discussion with public library staff who have been a part of outreach service from every angle! For libraries tasked with starting a bookmobile or mobile library service or expand what they already have –  You will hear from boots-on-the ground staff and a library director’s perspective on what works, what doesn’t, and what we wish someone had told us when we started.  Bring your burning questions as we will finish the discussion with a Q&A session.

  • Retention of Minority Librarians – September 18, 2020
      • Libraries try to be warm and welcoming places for everyone, but librarianship isn’t warm and welcoming to everyone who works in libraries.  For decades, many initiatives have focused on the retention of minority/under-represented populations, but what happens when we get in?  And what is necessary to get us to stay?  Presenters will share their experiences on how they have been retained in the profession and share resources for administrations, minority librarians, and more on proven retention strategies.
