Best Practices for Onboarding New Staff
November 19, 2025 @ 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm CST
New library workers face the challenge of learning a job as well as integrating into a workplace culture and environment. Part of onboarding is showing how the library as an institution supports and encourages employees, and engaged employees are a significant marker of an organization’s success. How do you ensure each new employee has a consistent and positive experience? Concrete tools and workflows will provide every person involved with a smooth and collaborative outcome.
As a result of this program, participants will:
- Discuss the essential parts of onboarding and how the process interacts with hiring and training
- Explore ways to organize incoming employees’ action items and how to ensure that all employees complete the onboarding process successfully
- Learn how to design a workflow that meets their library’s needs
Who will benefit from this program:
Managers/supervisors; administrative and human resources professionals.
