Core Webinar: Helping Neurodivergent Library Workers Succeed

Date: Wednesday, December 17, 2025

All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11 am Pacific, noon
Mountain, 1 pm Central, and 2 pm Eastern time.



Description:

In this webinar, I discuss neurodivergence, what it is and isn't, and how
you can be a better coworker and ally. This also provides recommendations
for supervisors on some ways to provide accommodations.

Learning outcomes:

At the end of the webinar, attendees will be able to:


   -

   able to have a better understanding of what it means to have
   neurodivergent coworkers and what they need and don't need
   -

   what managers can do to promote a better work environment for
   neurodivergent workers.


Who should attend?

This is geared toward anyone looking to improve their workplace for others,
especially managers.

Presenters:

Jen Conway received her MSIS from University of Tennessee Knoxville. She is
a neurodivergent cataloging and metadata librarian. In her professional
life, she has faced challenges in environments that were not always
supportive. Because of these mixed experiences in the workplace, she seeks
to help others understand how to provide a supportive work environment.
