Reimagining Library Culture Together August 11–13, 2026 | Virtual

Proposal Deadline April 10

We’re excited to invite proposals for ThriveLib 2026! ThriveLib: Reclaiming Joy, Balance, and Boundaries in Libraries is a virtual conference for librarians, library managers, and library workers who want more sustainable, humane library workplaces. Library workers are navigating burnout, moral injury, and growing strain. ThriveLib exists to create space for honest conversation, shared learning, and practical strategies that center the well-being of the people who sustain our libraries every day.

We’re also doing something a little different: all selected speakers receive free conference registration and an honorarium, because we believe sharing your labor, experience, and insight should be supported.
