Upon completion of the preconference, we will have an increased awareness of the essential ones to present.

Health programming and screenings, on an ongoing basis, will continue to be a priority and increase in frequency. |

Professional Development - ALA Midwinter / Library Moonwalk Grant | This program will help me better prepare to implement programming as part of the Library Moonwalk Grant. In addition, the Canajoharie Library and Art Gallery serves a population that is 25% below the poverty line. Because it's a 95 community as well, access to healthcare and health information is hard to come by. I'm excited to learn more about how to bring health equity to our community. |
November 1, 2018 - April 30, 2019 |
Professional Development - ALA Midwinter and NNLM Preconference | I will attend the sessions "The Role of Libraries in Addressing Homelessness and Poverty" and "Libraries and Open Enrollment." The conference will also provide opportunities to learn and share best practices, network, and increase my knowledge of trends in library and social services. My branch South Philadelphia Library has a health focus so I will certainly benefit from the preconference which will deepen my understanding of issues surrounding health literacy and equity. |

Professional Development - ALA Midwinter and Preconference | In applying for this award I hope to take the information I learn from the preconference on Implicit Bias, Health Disparities and Health Literacy: Intersections in Health Equity along with the sessions at Midwinter Conference back to Brooklyn. This award would allow me to learn more about health inequities with the populations I directly serve. I'd enjoy the chance to continue learning more about how librarians can continue helping address the health challenges in our communities. |
November 1, 2018 - April 30, 2019 |
Professional Development - Implicit Bias, Health Disparities and Health Literacy: Intersections in Health Equity and ALA Midwinter Conference | The main program that I would attend, Implicit Bias, Health Disparities, and Health Literacy: Intersections in Health Equity is an ALA Midwinter Preconference to raise awareness of implicit bias's connection to health equity and to deepen understanding of health literacy. Participants will explore how libraries can deepen their work in health literacy to make a lasting impact for improving the health of their community. Additional programming for ALA midwinter has not been released but I plan to attend sessions that deal with intersection of health literacy and food literacy. |
November 1, 2018 - April 30, 2019 |
Professional Development Awards to Attend ALA Midwinter | In the past year I have become intensely interested in the role of libraries in strengthening the health literacy of the communities we serve. After attending the "Stand Up for Health" preconference program at the 2018 PLA Conference, I came away with a desire to help increase my efforts in promoting health literacy to the staff of the 48 public libraries I work with in the Southern Tier of NY State. |
