Take Charge of Your Professional Development and Growth

If you are looking for ways to grow your professional development and competencies, here is a resource developed by 2016-2017 ALA President Julie Todaro’s presidential initiative task force to assist school librarians. They could be informative for public librarians, too. See more of "Libraries Transform: The Expert in the Library" rubrics and resources HERE.

You can also find links to the competencies for both the Association for Library Services to Children (ALSC) and Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA), as well as other resources and webinar recordings on the WI Department of Public Instruction's Youth and Inclusive Services page HERE.

And remember all of the awesome opportunities available at the WLA Conference and Preconference on October 17-20 at the Kalahari in Wisconsin Dells, too.

Many library systems have a page on their website dedicated to continuing education. One such is the South Eastern Wisconsin (SEWI) Area. You can view their list of onsite and online opportunities HERE.
