There are countless reasons why you might want to hear from your libraryā€™s community members but organizing a time for people to share their thoughts in a safe, structured environment can feel challenging. In many cases, conducting a focus group may be a great place to start. The goal of this webinar is to make designing and facilitating focus groups feel more accessible by discussing the following:

  • What focus groups are and how they can help your library engage community members
  • Tools and tips for designing focus groups and gathering participants
  • Skills for conducting inclusive, trauma-informed focus groups

We are looking forward to leading an engaging discussion on focus groups, by sharing what we have learned and listening to the audienceā€™s experience and perspectives.

No registration is required for this webinar. We will be using Adobe Connect, and you can access the webinar on November 9 at noon MT via the URL listed below.
