Uprooted, Nomadic, & Displaced
Library and information science careers are taking some of its workers all across the nation for new roles. These trajectories promise career growth, new opportunities, and some of the time, enviable salaries. However, while professional skills are gained and networks are broadened, these moves can be accompanied by loss, hardship, and challenges, too. In this webinar, panelists will discuss their professional journeys and perspectives based on what they have learned thus far in the many places they have been– among them: Illinois, Massachusetts, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Wisconsin, Vermont, and Virginia. Be encouraged to read Katrina Spencer’s Uprooted, Nomadic, and Displaced: The Unspoken Costs of the Upward Climb(opens in new window) in advance of the webinar to be most informed about the themes to be covered, and bring your questions, which will be shared with panelists during the last 30 minutes. This session will not be recorded.
*This webinar is brought to you by the Professional Development Alliance - a group of library consortia committed to sharing learning opportunities across their member libraries.
