SRRT (Social Responsibilities Round Table)

 View Only
last person joined: yesterday 

The Social Responsibilities Round Table works to make ALA more democratic and to establish progressive priorities not only for the Association, but also for the entire profession. Concern for human and economic rights was an important element in the founding of SRRT and remains an urgent concern today. SRRT believes that libraries and librarians must recognize and help solve social problems and inequities in order to carry out their mandate to work for the common good and bolster democracy.

    *Apologies for cross-posting.

    Do you work at a library that has gone above and beyond to care for their employees? Has there been some type of initiative that has created a more positive work environment for library employees that you think should be recognized? 

    If you answered yes, then we want YOU to apply for the SustainRT Citation for Wellness in the Workplace. Some examples of libraries going above and beyond for their employees might be libraries who meet the needs of their staff in the areas of continuing education, wellness, positive work environment, unions, salaries, gender equity, pay equity initiatives, and other activities designed to improve the salaries and status of librarians and other library workers.


    To find out more, visit the SustainRT Citation for Wellness in the Workplace webpage and submit your nominations by March 15th, 2021.
