Creating Introvert-Friendly Libraries – Debrief
Over the past several months we have been working with Jennifer Kahnweiler, PhD, to discuss how we might work on introversion inclusion. We had a keynote on November 3, 2022, that we followed up with a small group discussion meeting on November 16. Below are some of the resources and responses that came out of this work. As many participants have suggested, we have only begun “scratching the surface” of what introvert inclusion might look like in today’s library.
