<p style="margin:0in;line-height:13.65pt"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Public libraries are increasingly responding to violent and inflammatory speech and targeted attacks on their buildings, workers, and patrons.
Over the last two weeks of September, libraries in five cities faced bomb or shooting threats that resulted in canceled events and closures. These incidents also come directly on the heels of widespread intimidation related to censorship in the past year.
Thankfully, no one was hurt in these recent threats, but the stress and disruption of service take a toll on library workers and the communities they serve.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style="margin:0in;line-height:13.65pt"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Facing such threats to our basic safety can often be traumatic and isolating. The Public Library Association (PLA)—in collaboration with the
Urban Libraries Council (ULC) and the Association for Rural and Small Libraries (ARSL)—invites all library workers to join a virtual event to reflect and share with public library colleagues across the country. During this event, panelists will participate
in a facilitated conversation that explores effective policies and practices to improve safety and security for library staff and patrons, and invites questions and resources to be shared among all attendees.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

</span></strong><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">is a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and is the nation’s first full-time library social worker with San Francisco (CA) Public Library (SFPL).
Leah supervises the SFPL Social Service Program, which consists of a team of health and safety associates who are library outreach workers with lived experiences. Under Leah’s supervision, the library social service team has received national and international
attention in the library community and proved to be a model on which other libraries have created their own programs. Prior to working at the SFPL, Leah worked as an intensive case manager and clinical supervisor for the Department of Public Health for eight
years. She also worked as a child therapist and children’s advocate for five years at a domestic violence shelter in San Francisco. Leah served as co-chair of the PLA Social Work Task Force from 2018–2020. She speaks internationally on providing social services
in a library setting and as an advocate for people experiencing homelessness and mental health issues.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
