Bullying, Incivility, and You: Applying Strategies from Nursing to Library Work Environments

This interactive, participant-driven session will introduce librarians to evidence-based strategies and frameworks to address and resolve workplace incivility and bullying. Content leaders will present high-impact interventions to prevent and address incivility and bullying in libraries as identified from literature in the field of nursing, which shares a similar workforce population and service orientation with librarianship. Special attention will be paid to prioritizing BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and other historically marginalized voices while creating a supportive learning environment for all. Space for reflection, discussion, and sharing experiences will be incorporated throughout the session.
