[Libs-Or] Upcoming Learning Opportunities (FREE)

[HANNING Darci C * SLO]

Hello  library community!

Here's a quick reminder about learning resources available through the State Library and other organizations:

Be sure to visit the State Library of Oregon's CE website<https://libguides.osl.state.or.us/conted> for more learning resources and the CE Calendar<https://libguides.osl.state.or.us/conted/free#s-lib-ctab-24120710-1> which also includes links to the PDF<https://maine-msl.libguides.com/ld.php?content_id=74557260> and online<https://www.webjunction.org/find-training/free-events.html> versions of this month's free events listed by category (compiled by the Maine State Library hosted by WebJunction).
Self-paced resources, webinar recordings, podcasts, and articles:

LEARN: Equitable Work Place Practices for Managers: Strategies for Welcoming New Employees<https://my.nicheacademy.com/oregonstaff/course/67804>
(self-paced tutorial, available to Oregon libraries only, sign up here<https://www.cognitoforms.com/StateLibraryOfOregon/RequestAccessToContinuingEducationResources> if you access to the Oregon Library Staff Academy)

When you're hiring, a lot of time, effort, and money goes into finding the right person. And that effort shouldn't end when they accept your offer. Taking steps to help new employees feel welcome and included can improve retention and engagement, making things better for everyone!

Part of the Equitable Work Place Practices for Managers<https://my.nicheacademy.com/oregonstaff/pathway/44499> series.

WATCH: Navigating Misinformation Online: Toolkit Resources for Impactful Library Programming <https://programminglibrarian.org/learn/navigating-misinformation-online-toolkit-resources-impactful-library-programming>  (Programming Librarian / ALA)
A 90-minute video walkthrough of Be MediaWise: The Misinformation Resilience Toolkit For Libraries, a digital toolkit that librarians across the country can use to teach digital media literacy to adults in their communities.

LISTEN: An Introduction to Critical Librarianship w/Jamillah Gabriel<https://www.buzzsprout.com/1948067/15167148-s3-e3-an-introduction-to-critical-librarianship-w-jamillah-gabriel> (Overdue: Weeding Out Oppression podcast, season 3, episode 3)
Produced and hosted by the Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Antiracism (EDIA) Committee of the Oregon Library Association.

Jamillah R. Gabriel, the Critical Pedagogy Research Librarian at Harvard University and co-host of the podcast LibVoices, is joining Overdue for a second time. Jamillah provides listeners with a beginner-friendly overview of Critical Pedagogy, how it can be applied to library and information science, and used to promote EDIA within libraries and educational settings. In this most recent episode, Jamillah explores why EDIA racism trainings fail (or perhaps more accurately, why EDIA trainings are designed to fail), and how decolonizing bibliographic research can aid in centering marginalized voices and perspectives when it comes to knowledge production and citation.

Hosts:  LaRee Dominguez & Roxanne M. Renteria
Date of Interview: May 10, 2024

READ: Easy as ABCD: Using asset-based community development as a lens for authentic relationship-building<https://www.webjunction.org/news/webjunction/using-asset-based-community-development.html>
Strong relationships are the foundation for any kind of shared work. Building trust and mutual understanding through respect for each other's strengths and gifts using an asset-based community development (ABCD) approach is a great place to start.

Highlighted events:

Thursday, June 6, 2024. 12p PT  (90 minutes) Data storytelling 101 <https://www.webjunction.org/events/webjunction/data-storytelling-101.html>  (WebJunction)
Storytelling is a vital strategy for communicating impact and justifying future investments. Powerful and effective stories allow us to create a roadmap that weaves together information and emotion. This webinar will provide an orientation to storytelling that centers cultural humility while leveraging storytelling dynamics, including how to practice and refine an impactful story with a live audience. Participants will learn the techniques of story construction based on three classic narrative structures, with roots in folklore and narratology, and explore examples of data stories told by and about libraries. This is an opportunity to build confidence in the ability to recognize and craft a meaningful and memorable story.
