Proactive Advocacy and Communication for Library Trustees and Staff

Registration: https://www.webjunction.org/events/webjunction/proactive-advocacy-communication-library-trustees-staff.html

Rally the troops, consolidate the message, and get it out there! These common and important steps are all part of the response when there’s a crisis challenging the library. But what can we do the rest of the time, before a crisis arises? Using both outward and inward facing tools, there are simple steps that boards and library staff can integrate into their communication processes, to be better prepared for unknown changes. Learn about these tools and how they can set the stage for dealing more effectively with any crisis your library faces in the future.
This webinar is hosted in collaboration with the Association for Rural and Small Libraries (ARSL).
Presented by: Lori Fisher, Assistant State Librarian/Administrator of Library Operations, New Hampshire State Library

Friday, February 5, 2021 ◆ 2:00 pm Eastern / 11:00 am Pacific ◆ 90 minutes
Registration: https://www.webjunction.org/events/webjunction/resources-for-wellbeing.html

Social wellbeing, individuals living the good life in a thriving community, is something public libraries can influence! Join these rural library directors for a tour of the most popular tools for helping libraries improve social wellbeing in their communities created from the Rural Library Service & Social Wellbeing Project<https://rurallibraries.org/> research. Learn from library directors who leverage all available resources to create feelings of delight, power, cultural identity, and belonging for community residents with outstanding results. Participants will leave understanding key actions libraries can take to improve social wellbeing outcomes in their own communities, both immediately, and over the long haul.
