There is just one more week to submit 30-minute presentation proposals
for our Library 2.023 mini-conference: "Mental Health and Wellness:
Library Workers Thriving in Uncertain Times," which will be held online
(and for free) on Tuesday, April 4th, 2023, from 12:00 - 3:00 pm
US-Pacific Time. We have 2,500 registrations so far and should easily
have over twice that many by the time of the conference, so we're
anticipating a great event!
The free registration link is below, as are the details on the keynote
panel and the link to submit those 30-minute session proposals--only one
week left to submit!
Libraries have the power to help transform lives, both for staff and
patrons, through efforts that promote mental health and wellness. In
this Library 2.0 mini-conference, we will focus specifically on helping
library workers thrive in our current uncertain and complex times. We
will also explore the “opportunity to reimagine our futures, to renew
and adapt our institutions and to craft new stories about who we are and
what we value” (United Nations' Human Development Report 2021/2022
(
https://www.undp.org/thailand/publications/human-development-report-2021-22)
).
Our special conference chair is Loida Garcia-Febo who, as past
president of the American Library Association, focused on workplace
wellness areas including continuing education, creating a positive work
environment, unions, gender equity, pay equity, and other activities
designed to improve the salaries and status of library professionals. We
are encouraging conference session submissions that focus on programs
and initiatives supporting staff, team, leadership, and organizational
health and wellness. Examples of topics that are encouraged include the
following, but other related submissions are also welcome:
	●  staff burnout;
	●  trauma support;
	●  mindfulness practices;
	●  civility in ideologically or culturally polarized
environments;
	●  quality of work-life;
	●  the “8 Elements of Wellness” defined by ALA-APA: Emotional,
Environmental, Financial, Intellectual, Occupational, Physical,
Spiritual, and Social (https://ala-apa.org/wellness).
We look forward to gathering online with you for this event!
This is a free event, being held live online and also recorded.
