 everything\, putting strain on the humans that run it. Libraries are the 
 hearts of their communities\, but sometimes we put ourselves at risk to 
 keep those hearts pumping. Because of these expectations\, library 
 employees end up being glorified security guards\, babysitters\, social 
 workers\, and frontline staff. Burnout becomes inevitable if you don’t 
 incorporate strategies to prevent stress from impossible demands. Learn 
 about ways to avoid burnout and refocus your priorities on setting healthy 
 boundaries and remembering the qualities that made you passionate about the 
 profession.\n\n\n\nFollowing this webinar\, you will know how to:\n\n\n	How 
 to set healthy boundaries with library users and teammates \n	How to 
 identify and connect with administrators for support \n	How to develop 
 strategies in preventing and coping with stress \n	How to shift your 
 perspective to refocus on real 
 priorities\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter:\n\n\n\nJennifer Blair is the Head of User 
 Services Librarian and Associate Professor at Azusa Pacific University 
 (APU). Her role is dedicated to the user experience\, including marketing 
 the library\, and teaching. She has extensive experience teaching online 
 courses in design and library studies including library management. 
 Jennifer holds a B.A. in Graphic Design\, an M.A. in Educational 
 Multimedia\, and an M.S. in Library and Information Studies. Her experience 
 in academic and public libraries as well as work experience in art and 
 design allow her to employ visionary strategies to enrich progress and
