Description
 
In its 17th year, Future of Libraries will present two full days of engaging online sessions focusing on timely topics related to equity, community engagement, and the culture of care. Most session recordings will be made available to registrants following the live sessions (access limitations set by presenters), and pre-recorded peer presentations will be available during and after the conference.
 
Day 1 will feature speakers addressing the topics of care and engagement, with presentations on mindfulness, listening and being heard, as well as a deep, interactive dive into asset-based community development and peer presentations around community engagement. Day 2 will focus on the topics of equity and care, with presentations on understanding and confronting power for racial equity, dismantling everyday racism in libraries, radical imagination in the future of libraries, and belonging at your library, concluding with a collective space for attendees looking to process workplace experiences and heal.
