November 30 | Free Webinar
Public Library Association, The Association for Rural & Small Libraries, Cambridge Public Library, Mid-Continent Public Library, San Francisco Public Library
Facing threats to our basic safety can often be traumatic and isolating. The Public Library Association (PLA) — in collaboration with ULC and the Association for Rural & Small Libraries — invites all library workers to join a free virtual event on Wednesday, November 30 to reflect and share with public library colleagues across the country. The panel will feature PLA president and Cambridge Public Library Director Maria McCauley, senior counsel to the director for the US Department of Justice Justin Lock, director of the Fort Worth (Texas) Public Library Manya Shorr, library social worker with San Francisco (Calif.) Public Library Leah Esguerra, and director of security at Mid-Continent Public Library (Independence, Mo.) Dustin Koopman.
During this free virtual event, panelists will participate in a facilitated conversation that explores effective policies and practices to improve safety and security for library staff and patrons and invites questions and resources to be shared among all attendees.
