SUMMARY:GELS | Building Capacity for Community-Led Libraries: Inspirational Changes
DESCRIPTION:\n\nSession 2: Inspirational Changes\n\nWe will learn about the 
 changes that are most impactful to make first. These include DEI 
 accountability\, aligning with community goals\, and investing in 
 conceptual education.\n\nBuilding Capacity for Community-Led Libraries 
 Series\n\nCommunity-led planning helps increase equity\, creativity\, and 
 engagement in library programs and services. But many libraries struggle 
 with building the mindset\, culture\, and structures to embrace it. In this 
 four-part interactive series\, you will learn how to apply the fundamentals 
 of community-led planning in your library. The evidence-based strategies 
 will cover three types of change\, derived from Dr. Barbakoff’s original 
 research: inspirational\, transformational\, and operational. We will 
 discuss real-world scenarios to help you use the concepts in your work. 
 Regardless of the size\, type\, or readiness of your library\, you can 
 build your capacity to equitably center community. \n\nDr. Audrey Barbakoff 
 is the CEO of Co/Lab Capacity\, which provides community-centered 
 consulting for libraries and social good organizations. She has more than a 
 decade of experience in public libraries\, where she focused on community 
 engagement and leadership. Her innovative and inclusive work has been 
 recognized by Library Journal Movers & Shakers\, the Kitsap Peninsula 
 Business Journal 40 Under 40\, the Freedom to Read Foundation\, and the 
 Urban Libraries Council. In addition to her MLIS\, Dr. Barbakoff holds an 
 EdD in organizational change and leadership. Her dissertation research 
 focused on building organizational capacity for equity\, diversity\, and 
 inclusion in public libraries through community-led programs. She is the 
 author of Adults Just Wanna Have Fun: Programs for Emerging Adults and the 
 forthcoming book Twelve Steps to a Community-Led Library. Find her at
