Not an issue, April--just wanted to step up if an obligation needed to be addressed. Happy to have other people get those experiences instead. I'll just keep my eyes peeled for if anything else comes up that needs someone to step up for it--just wanting to be helpful where needed, but I don't need to ...

Thanks for the heads up Jacqueline. This might be difficult for me to make something I'm able to attend regularly but, if I can make it to this upcoming meeting, I will. I would love to at least poke my head in and connect with the others in conversation about this. Thanks,Nick -- Nick DemskeH ...

Hi Jacqueline and all, Just logged on to join this meeting, but I didn't see this message that was sent out yesterday and so, since I'm on CST in Wisconsin, I'm apparently an hour late. Sorry to have missed it. Regardless, I interrupted shoveling us out of a serious snow storm to come in for the meeting ...

This is a passion area for me, Jacqueline, for sure. I believe that libraries are institutions of justice first and foremost--even more than being institutions of literacy. And true justice in centered around healing, so I hope to see libraries centering self care and healing practices with and for their ...

So Oak Park Public Library has apparently been doing a Restorative Justice "conference" for 3 years now annually. This year it's a month long and, like everything else, virtual, which means anyone from anywhere can participate. I wanted to learn more about it so I popped into a few sessions yesterday. ...

Unfortunately my schedule was already booked up by the time I saw this notice, but I was just wondering if a recording of this webinar will be available after the fact to view. I'm very passionate about this issue, and I'm an elected official in the community, outside of my library role, so I'm connected ...

Just wanted to thank you for posting this.  I randomly sent it out to a few community people and groups whom I thought might be interested in collaborating for it and it turns out the sustainability officer at the Mayor's office here is very focused on very parallel initiatives (especially the piece ...

Hey Marian (and all), just wanted to say that yesterday was my first meeting with the SRRT, so you're definitely not the only new person in the cut.  Great to hear you're working towards completing you MLIS and that you're so passionate about EDI work, too.  I think the "often discussed, seldom enacted" ...

Hey Amber, thanks for the heads up about this. If we would like to do a joint article, is that alright? I've been doing Racial healing Circles out here with a colleague, Elkid Alvarez Maldonado, and we're considering proposing a joint-post, if that would be of interest to you all. If so, how should ...
