Register by Monday, September 13, to join the first cohort of institutional teams planning their change process!
ACRL’s Fostering Change Cohort is a 12-week program designed for teams from institutions planning any type of organizational change. Each team can be made up of between two and five library workers, and a full scholarship will be awarded to one team from a minority-serving institution.
Participants will:
- share and learn from other groups, and define their own team norms and processes for moving forward with change
- complete a project plan and a communication plan for their change by the end of the program
- be able to succinctly describe the change process and need to a variety of stakeholders
- gain a community of practice that they can continue to engage with after the end of the cohort
The Fostering Change Cohort hopes to build a community of change agents in academic libraries, armed with the tools to spark, lead, and sustain change no matter your organizational position and with a network of peers to lean on as you embark on your change process.
