Diversity & Outreach Unconference 2024: Community Partners

The Diversity & Outreach Section, in collaboration with the Library Workers of Color (LWOC) Section, invites you to join us for our biannual Unconference on Wednesday, October 16, 2024 at Princeton University.

This year's theme is Community Partners, and we are excited to announce that it will once again be an unconference format. This means most sessions will be driven by participants. We will invite discussion proposals from all in attendance, on topics ranging from EDI, Community Engagement & Partnerships, Outreach, Mental Health & Wellness Support, and Advocacy. This event offers a unique opportunity to connect with others who share the same passion as you and to inspire new ideas amongst the collective. This conference is offered to you at no-cost.

Click here to register. After you register, you will receive more information about breakout sessions and workshops. Registration ends Friday, October 11, 2024.
