Tickets Are Now Available for the First-Ever ThriveLib Conference,

Registration is now open for ThriveLib, a new virtual conference focused exclusively on library workers’ well-being. Taking place August 12–14, 2025, ThriveLib centers library staff, not patrons, and is grounded in the belief that a healthy workplace is foundational to good service.

Library workers across all roles are being asked to do more with less while navigating burnout, compassion fatigue, blurred boundaries, and increasingly unsafe conditions. ThriveLib was created in response to these realities. It’s a space to step back, reflect, and reimagine a more sustainable, just, and human-centered path forward.

Who Should Attend?
Anyone who works in a library and wants to create or sustain a healthier work environment. This includes frontline staff, middle managers, directors, and anyone who believes people matter more than productivity.

What to Expect:

  • Keynotes, panels, and interactive sessions on burnout, psychological safety, disability justice, inclusive leadership, setting boundaries, and more.
  • Recordings of all sessions available for 30 days.
  • Certificates of attendance to support CE requirements.
  • A conference culture that values care over output.

Sliding Scale Pricing
ThriveLib uses a sliding scale to keep the event accessible:

  • $75 – Subsidized (for students and under/unemployed library workers—no documentation needed)
  • $100 – Standard (covers event operations and speaker compensation)
  • $125 – Pay It Forward (helps subsidize others—thank you for your generosity)

All ticket levels include full access to sessions, recordings, and CE certificates.

Join Us
ThriveLib isn’t just a conference, it’s a commitment to putting people first in library work. We hope you’ll be part of this first-of-its-kind gathering.
