data tell us about what staff experience on the front lines of library work? How are leaders innovating with trauma-informed care in academic, public, school, and special libraries? How can staff be empowered to advocate for themselves and lead from every
level, regardless of their job role within the library? These questions and more will be explored with mental health experts, leading researchers, compassionate leaders, and frontlines practitioners.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
