Theme: Switching Gears: Finding Time to Check In and Check Out

For many of us, this past year has been one of seemingly insurmountable professional and personal challenges. Our homes, our jobs, our lives have been disrupted to say the least. Such disruption, in turn, has further highlighted, if not magnified inequities within our library systems, and unsettled our roles, our workspaces, and our professional relationships.

This conference will provide our library community the opportunity to reflect and commemorate this past year. Before we look ahead to our eventual return to our campuses and a sense of normalcy, we must first take time to acknowledge and validate this year of hardship, and the difficult labour of keeping well. We invite our library colleagues to submit Lightning Talk proposals about activities, events, leadership practices, etc. within our organizations that bring well-being into the workplace.
