Our primary focus in our webinars, articles, podcasts, and interview is on helping you build, improve, and work in a safe library environment.
In this special webinar, we’ll provide 20 tips, techniques, and ideas that you can use immediately to keep yourself, your facility, and/or your library staff safe at every level. They will work to help you or your staff to feel empowered, productive, assertive, and connected to your facility and the important service work you do on behalf of your patrons.
LEARNING AGENDA:

- The useful role of an employee-led Safety Committee.
- Expanding our offered/outside-the-box resources for patrons experiencing homelessness, mentally health, or substance use issues.
