SUMMARY:Building Equitable Library Worker Compensation
DESCRIPTION:This event will take place ONLINE via MS Teams. A link will be 
 sent out to all registrants in advance of the workshop.\n\nLibrary workers 
 have traditionally been paid lower wages and provided lesser benefits in 
 rural libraries due to cultural\, social\, and economic barriers. Yes\, 
 rural libraries are funded at lower levels than their partnering suburban 
 or urban institutions\, but this does not mean library boards shouldn’t 
 think creatively about how they support workers financially. This workshop 
 will provide an overview of the ways libraries can position themselves to 
 better compensate current library workers and improve overall retention and 
 recruitment. It will also highlight some essential tools trustees or 
 directors can use to strengthen library compensation packages.  \n\nLibrary 
 Trustee Learning Certified: This workshop meets New York State Legislated 
 Library Trustee Training requirements\, and counts as 1.0 credit hour 
 towards annual library trustee training. Participants will be emailed a 
 certificate upon completion for library record keeping.
