change. Author Cass Sunstein writes, "Behavior that is sensible, prudent, and courteous is likely to lead individuals and societies to blunder." Librarianship, on the whole, is prone to such behavior, choosing conformity over conflict, and inertia over action.
Authentic dissent in librarianship can be a catalyst to facilitate positive change against systemic oppression in libraries, and in society at large.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif">Making connections and being an active part of the community you serve is especially important in small and rural libraries. It makes your
library more visible and also enhances the quality of life in the community. Learn how a rural library director transformed library services over one summer, by getting out and growing awareness in the community. With the help of two enthusiastic staff, one
simple idea grew into so much more. We will explore different ways to engage your community, spark young readers, and build relationships with families. Hear tips, tools, and personal stories about how the library implemented outreach services and created
ways to positively impact the entire community! Learn how to make "librarian" not only your job title, but what you
<i>actively</i> do.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif">The lofty U.S. ideal of "justice for all" fails the equity test because many people, especially our nation$B!G(Bs poorest individuals, fall into
the "justice gap"—the divide between the civil legal needs of low-income people and the resources to meet those needs. Many of your community members who instinctively turn to the library for help with crises in their lives might be on the verge of falling
into this gap. Though legal issues can be intimidating for library staff, public libraries are well positioned to help reduce the justice gap. Join us to learn about the status of civil legal justice in our system and about the vital role you can play in connecting
people with information and supporting them as they navigate the complexities of the legal system. Law librarian Catherine McGuire, who has conducted extensive trainings with public libraries, will share insights into interacting with patrons who approach
the library with civil legal needs. With a basic understanding of the civil legal justice landscape, we hope you will be motivated to plunge deeper into helping close the justice gap by taking the live, multi-week online course to be offered in April.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
