Empowering Librarians: Insights on Training, Development, and Mentorship in Evolving Library Roles
Welcome to our survey!

Your perspective is crucial in shaping our understanding of how libraries can become community hubs and spaces to promote inclusion.
This survey will take approximately 10 minutes to complete.
