GPL librarians, Michelle and Emily participated in New York Library Association- NYLA's Developing Leaders Program for 2026 and presented their amazing Capstone Projects last week!

Michelle's groups topic was Making Real Change: Customer Service in Public Libraries. They created a toolkit that offers ways to assist staff in making encounters meaningful, setting boundaries when necessary, knowing when to ask for backup of tap out, and remembering to breathe!

Emily's groups topic was Inquiry Ecosystem. Together, they developed a values-driven, people-centered, interdisciplinary toolkit filled with resources and exercises for strengthening the questioning muscle that can be used by all library professionals for team and individual development and empowerment.

We are so incredibly proud of Michelle and Emily, they are rockstars! Learn more about their capston projects here: https://nyla.memberclicks.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=285:developing-leaders-program-2026-cohort&catid=20:site-content
