Library Workers Focus Group

Library Workers Focus Group Online

As part of our Pathways to Inclusion project, our collaborators CultureAlly will host a virtual focus group. This focus group is open to current library staff and will gather information on your experiences working in libraries and your journey into your current role. The feedback received will help us understand how we can build a more inclusive and equitable environment for members of the Massachusetts Library community, both now and in the future.

We hope you will join this meaningful conversation and share your insights on working in libraries. Your voice is important to us, and we’re eager to work together toward a more inclusive and diverse library workforce.
