coined the concept of "vocational awe" in 2018. Ettarh shares how vocational awe operates at both the micro and macro levels, contributing to problematic hiring, onboarding, and retention practices in the library profession, and illustrates how this concept
directly ties to workplace inequities and burnout. Additionally, Ettarh provides actionable ways to escape the trap of vocational awe by prioritizing mental health and rest, achieving work-life balance, reframing how we are showing up for community, and urging
administrators to lead by example.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

learn how to support these community members. This webinar will offer a comprehensive overview of Alzheimer’s dementia and practical advice on meeting the needs of both those with dementia and their caregivers. We’ll cover best practices, guidelines, and actionable
ideas for creating dementia-friendly services, including compassionate customer service, specialized reference resources, and engaging programming. By focusing on lifelong learning, mental stimulation, and social connections, libraries can make a meaningful
difference for those experiencing cognitive decline and their caregivers. <a href="https://oclcwebinars.webex.com/webappng/sites/oclcwebinars/meeting/register/18c3afd7f7784d81b3580b80be8d8060?ticket=4832534b000000078b68f9ab774b7be7990b26ffc80bf5c9a0dc324285e5c4b4251eaa25b19d6635×tamp=1724435473666&RGID=r1fabeac20d915556e089c2734a3b02c4">

the ten most common patron-facing policies and offer guidance on selecting and tailoring them to meet your library and community needs for safe and effective operation. Using a Code of Conduct policy as an example, we’ll discuss how to avoid policies driven
by trauma or drama, ensuring they are clear, accessible, and enforceable. Additionally, we’ll explore best practices for policy management, including the importance of regular reviews by directors, boards, and staff, to maintain accountability and relevance.
