Description: In our presentation PeMento’s four cofounders will discuss the
development, delivery, and outcomes of our independent peer mentoring and
professional development program for midcareer library workers, PeMento.
PeMento is an unapologetically improvisational and experimental 7-week
program inspired by mutual aid principles and created with design thinking
practices. Open to anyone who identifies as midcareer in libraries, the
program’s initial cohort of 80 participants all helped co-create a
professional development experience unlike any other in libraries.
Independent of any association or organizational agenda, PeMento presented
the provocative and timely opportunity for midcareer library workers to
give one another what they need in terms of reflection, direction, and
connection.

Learning outcomes:

Attendees will learn about:

1. Using a design thinking process to rapidly prototype a program;

2. Community building and engagement, including development of our Code of
Conduct and Expectations for Participation; and

3. Scaffolding engagement and reflective practice with intentionally
designed teams, prompts, tools, and worksheets.


Who should attend?

Midcareer library workers interested in connecting to help one another,
solve one another’s problems, and build a new kind of professional network
that is more open, kinder, braver, and more powerful.
