Writing Policy Without Worry (webinar)
Good
policies are an essential part of library operations. They help to create and enforce expectations
and rules as well as serving as a guiding framework for decision making. Unfortunately, writing policies can sometimes
be very stressful and time consuming. In
this session, we will go over the basics of writing policies and learn tips and
tricks to making them as painless as possible.
We will also talk about how we can ensure that our policies are fair and
equitable. We will have hands-on
practice with writing a simple policy.
The Indiana State
Library will make all reasonable modifications to policies and programs to

its programs, services, and activities. If you require an auxiliary aid or
service for effective communication, or a modification of policies or
procedures to participate in this program, service or activity of the Indiana
State Library, please contact Michele Johnson, the Indiana State Library’s ADA
