SUMMARY:Building community connections by hiring for cultural knowledge [WEBJUNCTION]
DESCRIPTION:From Webjunction: \n\nStaffing demographics rarely match those 
 of the communities they serve. Learn how valuing specific knowledge\, 
 skills\, and abilities during the hiring process can develop a staff ready 
 to serve a diverse community. Hear from Cultural Liaison Library Assistant 
 staff representing Hispanic and Tribal communities\, including the results 
 of their efforts to build connections with and share stories of these 
 communities. Attendees will be challenged to reconsider some common hiring 
 practices and how to make them more inclusive. Hear a success story from a 
 library that identified cultural knowledge gaps and worked with community 
 stakeholders during the job posting and selection process.\n\n \n\nREGISTER 
 HERE\n\nJoin Meeting: https://bit.ly/4h0EqGq
