How to be More Inclusive in Your Readers' Advisory Work<https://infopeople.org/civicrm/event/info?id=933&reset=1>
Presented by: Laurel Johnson and Allyson Coan
Wednesday, October 7, 2020 @noon Pacific

In this webinar, Laurel Johnson and Allyson Coan will give you strategies and practical applications to incorporate principles of inclusion into your advisory services. We'll talk about inclusion and why it's important in readers' advisory, diversity audits and how to use them for advisory work, strategies for bringing authors from marginalized communities into focus, and how to call-in your coworkers. This webinar will give participants a better understanding of how to actively prioritize inclusion in advisory work, instead of falling back on established practices of leaving behind underrepresented authors and narratives.

Note: While we'll touch on collection development, the focus of the webinar is readers' advisory.

At the end of this one-hour webinar, participants will:
*         Define, understand, and implement the concepts of inclusive readers advisory
*         Have a deeper understanding of the #OwnVoices movement
*         Reflect upon and identify gaps in their own reading and suggesting habits
*         Bolster awareness of underrepresented authors amongst their coworkers and patrons

This webinar will be of interest to: Anyone who suggests or markets titles to patrons and customers.

If 2020 has shown us anything it's that, now more than ever, library staff need to find creative and flexible ways to bring resources and programming to families where they are in their communities. Additionally, we must continue finding new ways to serve families who have been left out of traditional library programming in order to build equity, develop inclusive practice, and encourage diverse voices.

In this session, a panel of youth services presenters will share their approach to serving families in poverty, immigrant communities, and rural communities as examples of how library services and programs can be designed with the changing needs of today's children and families in mind.

At the end of this one-hour webinar, participants will:
*         Reviewed 7 keys of effective partnership
*         Gained insight into 5 innovative ways libraries are serving communities
*         Learn about co-design and its potential impact on involving community in program design
*         Develop an outreach mission statement for your community
*         Gain an understanding of the importance of Letters of Agreement and Memorandum of Understanding

This webinar will be of interest to: Youth services librarians and outreach staff at all levels.
