Please consider applying to the "Libraries and Sustainability" Virtual Book Club!
ALA has announced the "Libraries and Sustainability" Virtual Book Club, a series of three virtual, interactive conversations about incorporating sustainability into librarianship to be held in November and December 2022: https://programminglibrarian.org/articles/apply-now-libraries-and-sustainability-virtual-book-club
Library workers who would like to be considered for one of the 100 available spots should apply online by August 19.
Participation is free but limited to 100 participants. Participants will receive a free print or ebook copy of "Libraries and Sustainability: Programs and Practices for Community Impact," edited by René Tanner, Adrian K. Ho, Monika Antonelli and Rebekkah Smith Aldrich (ALA Editions, 2021).
The book club series consists of three 90-minute virtual book clubs. Each session will feature one chapter from "Libraries and Sustainability," and will offer a live conversation with the chapter's authors, small-group breakout discussion, and Q&A time with the authors.
Applicants will be notified of their acceptance by September 5. Sessions will take place over Zoom; the link will be provided to participants once their registration is confirmed.
