A nice little guide with tips on how to get the most out of library work and find joy and balance in your life.
The book suggests activities for increasing joy for patrons, coworkers, and yourself. Each page provides a short tip or exercise for finding and creating joy in library work. Many of the tips involve taking in nature, noticing your surroundings, connecting with others, and taking pride in your work. From recognizing monthly accomplishments to meditating, taking fun pictures to sharing feel-good content with coworkers, the strategies include self-care activities, reflections, and little fun things to do to increase joy. Each tip/exercise is paired with black-and-white stock images.
A sweet book for implementing joy and recognizing all the good you and your library do.
