[Michlib-l] ThriveLib: A New Conference Centered on Library Worker Well-Being

[Grooten, Todd Michael]

Hi all,



I'm excited to share that I've joined the Advisory Board for ThriveLib: Reclaiming Joy, Balance, and Boundaries in Libraries, a new virtual conference taking place August 12-14, 2025.



This event is different. It's centered on the well-being of library workers, not just patrons, and was built by a team of library professionals who care deeply about creating healthier, more sustainable workplaces.



As a board member, I've had the privilege of helping shape the vision for this inaugural year. Topics include burnout, disability justice, boundaries, inclusive leadership, and more.



What to expect:



  *   Sliding scale pricing to increase accessibility
  *   All speakers are paid for their expertise
  *   Live sessions + 30 days of recordings
  *   Certificate of attendance included



Join us and be part of something new:

Feel free to reach out if you have questions. I hope to see you there.



Warmly,

Todd M. Grooten
