About this
A call that echoed throughout the day was that we all have a responsibility as individuals to “be the change we want to see”.
We can not rely on national bodies or our employer to take us into the future. As individuals we can be powerful advocates for the sector simply by persuading our social circles, our local community, and our employing organisation of the value of libraries.
We can support the sector by fostering the success of our peers, building strong networks, and being open to radically transforming the way that we work.
