Bringing new staff on board is one of the most important investments your library can make. In this practical one-hour webinar, Dr. Curtis Rogers will guide you through how to build an effective onboarding process that welcomes new employees, integrates them into your library’s culture, and sets them up to thrive. We’ll explore how managers can work collaboratively with human resources, master the communication and time management skills essential for successful onboarding, and ensure meaningful follow-up and evaluation. Whether you’re designing a new onboarding program or strengthening an existing one, you’ll leave with actionable ideas, a sample checklist, and proven strategies to make your library a place where new employees feel supported from day one. Online resources will be provided and there will be opportunities for Q&A and discussion.
This project is made possible by grant funds from the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) administered by the State of Michigan through the Library of Michigan.
