- Demonstrates a personal commitment to create a hospitable and welcoming environment.
- Fosters respect for all individuals and points of view.
- Treats all users and coworkers with respect;
- Shows sensitivity;
- Displays inclusive behavior;
- Uses empathy;
- Integrates new library staff members into the organization;
- Encourages and utilizes different viewpoints;
- Fosters an environment based on fairness and respect.
To help foster this value, we are asking staff to attend 3 out of the following 4 events during the month of November:
For each event you attend, put up a blog post on any reflections you have about the event and how it addresses inclusiveness.
