For our kickoff session in April, we’re thrilled to welcome Dori Vecchio, Interim Town Manager for the Town of Auburn, who will share practical strategies to help women in library science level up their careers—from mastering job interviews to negotiating salaries and identifying transferable skills. Drawing from her own experience advancing in public service, Dori offers real-world advice, encouragement, and workplace best practices to help you rise and thrive.

This is more than just a talk—it’s a supportive space where librarians can connect, share, and ask questions. Bring your lunch, bring your voice, and let’s build each other up!
