Webinars
SLA regularly offers free webinars via Zoom as a way to provide professional development without the traditional barriers of cost, travel, or large time requirements. Some webinars are available to everyone, while some webinars are open only to SLA members.
As SLA hosts these webinars, registration details will be made available on this page. Check back often for the latest updates!
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: 2SLGBTQ Inclusion in the Library and Workplace Community
In this presentation, you will be introduced to gender inclusive language in the workplace, inclusive spaces, and pronouns. There will be an opportunity to practise how to use pronouns and ask questions to the presenter. There will be resources provided on exploring the topics that are being discussed.
SLA is delighted to have Wendy Li (she/her) join us as our presenter.
Wendy is a Chinese queer woman who was born and raised on Treaty 6 Territory in Outlook, Saskatchewan. She received her Bachelor of Education in 2015 and did not take the traditional classroom route after graduating but instead took her skills to provide workshops to non-profits, businesses, and corporations about 2SLGBTQ topics. She is now the Equity and Inclusion Coordinator at Saskatchewan Intercultural Association.
This webinar will be hosted via Zoom and is open to all SLA members, both individual and institutional. Not sure if you have a membership? Check with your employer to see if they have an institutional membership. If they do, you are covered under that!
