Practical Management or Practical Magic Webinar:

Inclusion and the Library: A Management Perspective with Nikhat J. Ghouse

An inclusive organization is one that is aware that inclusion is a continuous process and not an end goal. This presentation will look at how libraries and managers can create or sustain equitable, inclusive environments, and work toward retaining a diverse workforce.

This is the next discussion in our Supervisory Conversation series, in which we strive to offer a synchronous forum for all interested participants--regardless of your membership status in ALA or your position in a library.

No registration required. Join in at the designated hour here:
