Join members of ACRL’s New Roles and Changing Landscapes Committee and invited panelists from 2:00 p.m. - 3:00 eastern time on Tuesday, July 11, 2023, for a free discussion of strategies and assessment techniques for making your library welcoming to all users. “ACRL Presents: Creating Welcoming Spaces in Academic Libraries” will address four main questions: 

 

- What does it mean to be welcoming? How do you apply this to academic libraries?

- What are some ways that your library has created a welcoming space for people of diverse backgrounds as related to accessibility, library users with disabilities, cultural backgrounds, language, first generation students, safety, events, policies, working with other academic departments, etc.?

- What are some ways you have measured progress or success in making your library a welcoming space?

- What tips or suggestions do you have for academic libraries and library workers to help make their library a welcoming space for people of diverse backgrounds?
