  • 1.  Training Ideas

    Posted Apr 21, 2022 08:39 AM
    Hello everyone,

    I am part of a newly formed group at the UB Libraries that is tasked with selecting DEIA trainings for our department.  My group works a lot with first-year international students, so I am wondering if anyone has taken part in a relevant training that they would recommend?  Any ideas are appreciated and welcomed.  While I am specifically looking for trainings that address working with international students in academic libraries, I'm happy to hear about any great DEIA trainings you've experienced so I can bring that back to my group.

    Thank you in advance for your insight!
