You are invited to join us for the NNLM Book Discussion. From August 1 through October 31, we will read Transcendent Kingdom by Yaa Gyasi.

This class will be an introduction to data librarianship for early career librarians or librarians considering data librarianship as a path of work. If you have any interest in learning about becoming a data librarian but do not know where to start, this class is an entry point into this field of work. Topics of discussion will include job responsibilities, early career development opportunities, AI, and coding.

This presentation will introduce participants to the foundational principles of Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) and highlight how it differs from general nutrition education or wellness advice. Attendees will gain insight into the specialized role of the Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) in the development of an individualized plan of care and nutrition therapy interventions. Conditions such as diabetes, obesity, kidney disease, and gastrointestinal disorders, for which MNT is particularly effective will be discussed.
