When You are Engulfed in Flames: Recognizing and overcoming job burnout Jean Heilig, Colorado State Library Recorded August 2016<https://enetlearning.adobeconnect.com/p8d00t2nmw6/> Job burnout is a response to stress that leaves you feeling hopeless, powerless, despondent and overwhelmed. But, don't despair you can do something about it! During this session you'll learn this doesn't happen overnight. Our bodies and minds do give us warning signs, and if you know what to look for, you can recognize it before exhaustion and ineffectiveness set in.

by Andrea Ingmire 16 Nov '21

16 Nov '21

Hi all, Our Development Fund made enough money this year to have to complete the long form 990 as opposed to the 990-N post card. One question in the long form was about having a whistleblower policy. Does anyone have one they could share? Thanks!

Series concludes this Thursday with Symposium 4: A New Normal Agenda in a COVID-Affected World (November 18, 2021) Registration is now open for the New Librarianship Symposia. The series brings together practitioners, scholars, and an international body of library organizations to discuss Diversity Equity and Inclusion, Post-neutrality librarianship, international cooperation in libraries, and the development of a new normal agenda for librarian advocacy moving forward. If you are interested, please sign up now for the live stream event: Register for this symposium at EventBrite<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgiglibrar…> -STILL OPEN Symposium 1: Post-Neutrality Librarianship (October 28, 2021): Librarians cannot be unbiased neutral information professionals and passionate advocates for better communities. To seek an improved society calls for a vision of what "improved" means. How can librarians reconcile the reality of making service decisions in a context of limited resources with a mandate to serve the whole community? Register for this symposium at EventBrite<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgiglibrar…> --concluded Symposium 2: Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (November 4, 2021): The vital need for diversity in librarianship stems from twin beliefs in the inherent value and dignity of all people and in the fact that the best knowledge is derived from the richest variety of sources. How can this be expressed as a core value of librarianship and what are its implications for the institutions librarians build and maintain? How can we address institutional racism, biases, discrimination, and inaccessibility in library institutions, education, and practice internationally? How might we integrate principles of inclusion and universal design? Register for this symposium at EventBrite<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgiglibrar…> --concluded Symposium 3: International Influences (November 11, 2021): Concepts of diversity, of service, and of librarianship itself are strongly influenced by local contexts. The idea that the work of librarians looks the same in Kenya, Norway, China, and the United States is founded on the strained concept that universal structures serve all. What in librarianship transcends national boundaries, what varies, and what is the process that connects the two? Register for this symposium at EventBrite<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgiglibrar…> --concluded Symposium 4: A New Normal Agenda in a COVID-Affected World (November 18, 2021): The COVID pandemic has put in sharp contrast the role of libraries in communities, and made clear how what was once considered normal, must never be normalized again. Librarians must fight for universal broadband, better workforce development, and expand democratic conversations, to ensure the wellbeing of communities and understand their roles in a crisis. What does the new normal agenda for librarianship look like? Register for this symposium at EventBrite<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgiglibrar…> -- STILL OPEN!

by Reish, Karren (MDE) 16 Nov '21

16 Nov '21

The Library of Michigan is pleased to announce twenty-four American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) grants for the 2021/2022 fiscal year. APRA funding is helping the Michigan library community to support their communities by responding to pandemic needs as well as related economic needs. LM has approved twenty-four out of sixty-one proposals for a total of $4,004,730.00. The LM APRA grant program included both an equipment focus and a capacity focus. The equipment grants, for public libraries, are intended to increase the capacity of grantee libraries to safely provide services and content to community members. The capacity grants, for statewide library organizations, are intended to both increase the capacity of public libraries to provide internet access and virtual services and to increase the capacity of public and academic libraries to provide virtual content to their communities. Twenty-one grants were awarded in the equipment program and three grants were awarded in the capacity program. Information on how to participate in the capacity grants will be coming soon. Please find overview of the grant awards in the Library of Michigan ARPA Grants Overview<https://www.michigan.gov/documents/libraryofmichigan/ARPA_grants_2021_grant…>.
