We like podcasts!
We make a few of them, to share with you some great ideas for libraries and for reading.
We also like to talk about happiness in the workplace, and the workplace we care most about is in a library.
In these little bonus podcasts, we want to highlight some of the interesting and positive things a few libraries are doing! If you have some great things to share, send them to us at admin@cmle.org.
When you are doing all the hard day-to-day work in a library, it can be hard to remember to step back and enjoy yourself. Let’s get together here each month and remember!
