Descriptions

Super Library Supervisor

This series of training workshops in supervisory skills has been serving the New Jersey library community for more than 20 years. This spring, our workshop series will return to a virtual format!

*Our in-person option will return in Fall 2025.*

Updated Series Topics and Dates:

  • Wednesday, March 26th, 10AM - 3PM
    • The Importance of Self-Awareness
    • Giving & Receiving Feedback
  • Wednesday, April 2nd, 10AM - 3PM
    • HR Basics Every Supervisor Should Know
    • Personnel Documentation & Evaluation
  • Wednesday, April 9th, 10AM - 3PM
    • Open & Honest Communication in the Workplace
    • Building Relationships & Resolving Staff Conflict
  • Wednesday, April 16th, 10AM - 3PM
    • The Leader's Toolkit: Starting with Empathy

All sessions will be held virtually. Please note: This will be the last virtual option of Super Library Supervisors for the time being. Going forward, Super Library Supervisors will be an in-person, annual series held each fall, beginning in Fall 2025. We hope this change will allow for a more interactive and engaging series for both participants and presenters.

Target Audience:

  • Library staff who are currently supervisors and have less than five years of supervisory experience.
  • Participants must be actively working as a supervisor at the time the series begins.
  • More experienced supervisors are welcome, if this is their first supervisory training.
