<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">For over 120 years, Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) have been used by libraries of all types across the country to organize their collections and help their communities find what they need. However, LCSH can be
complex to use and difficult to understand, with its subdivisions and pattern headings. And, LCSH has been notoriously slow to update language, even as terms become outdated and come to hold new meanings. If you manage the collection records for your institution,
consider joining us for this introductory webinar on inclusive cataloging practices. Learn more and register

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Felt safety is the cornerstone of our ability to connect and regulate. Yet, at times we may
<i>be</i> safe, but not <i>feel</i> safe. Our outward response to loss of felt safety may vary, but neurobiologically there is a pattern which can help us find our way back to felt safety. The “Fight or Flight” response tells only part of the story of how we
respond to stress (loss of felt safety). We will dive into our full stress response cycle and explore tools to help us end the battle to stop “behavior” and shift to helping ourselves and others create the resilience, belonging, and courage to work cooperatively.
