ThriveLib: A New Conference Centered on Library Worker Well-Being

Hi all, I'm excited to share that I've joined the Advisory Board for ThriveLib: Reclaiming Joy, Balance, and Boundaries in Libraries, a new virtual conference taking place August 12-14, 2025. This event is different. It's centered on the well-being of library workers, not just patrons, and was built by a team of library professionals who care deeply about creating healthier, more sustainable workplaces. As a board member, I've had the privilege of helping shape the vision for this inaugural year. Topics include burnout, disability justice, boundaries, inclusive leadership, and more. What to expect: * Sliding scale pricing to increase accessibility * All speakers are paid for their expertise * Live sessions + 30 days of recordings * Certificate of attendance included Join us and be part of something new: https://thrivelib.heysummit.com Feel free to reach out if you have questions.
