RA For All Roadshow Visits Ontario Library Association's RA in A Day

Today I am proud to be the keynote speaker at a full day conference for "Readers' Advisory Advocates" [I love that phrase by the way] sponsored by the Ontario [Canada] Library Association. Called RA in a Day, this annual event has moved to a virtual platform this year. 

I am presenting Actively Anti-Racist Service to Leisure Readers. I am extra excited to present this program for OLA because as you can see below, they aren't just talking the talk on EDI and Anti-Racist issues; they are working hard to improve in every way. Seriously, look at the programs they scheduled.

Tuesday April 20, 2021. 9:30am – 4:15pm.  Hosted on Zoom.

RA in a Day is a one-day conference that brings some of the best readers’ advisory advocates together to share their knowledge and expertise on meeting the needs of adult readers. During the day, participants will learn about the latest RA trends and look at how to best serve those who visit our libraries every day, whether online or in-person.
