“The Opiate Crisis: What Libraries Can Do”
Date & Time: January 18th, 2018. Start Time: Pacific - 12
Noon, Mountain - 1 PM, Central - 2 PM, Eastern - 3 PM
Description: This webinar discusses the history and depth of the opiate
problem in this country and how it has come to the attention of libraries and
their staff. Dr. Steve Albrecht is a former San Diego Police Reserve Sergeant
and a member of the California Narcotics Officers Association, trained in Drug
Abuse Recognition (DAR) and Advanced DAR. In this session he will focus on how
library staff members at all levels can recognize the signs and symptoms of
opiate users who are either under the influence or in withdrawal (which makes
them act erratic, irrational, threatening, and even violent). He will cover
what to do when faced with an overdose patient; the safe and effective use of
Narcan (a drug that reverses the effects of opiate overdose); getting help from
social services agencies and substance abuse professionals, and the police.
This session will also discuss how to make your library facility and its
restrooms safer and less likely to become a haven for opiate
users.
At the end of this one-hour webinar, participants will:
* Recognize the tremendous increase in opiate overdose problems
in this country and why libraries are not immune to the issue.
* How to recognize opiate use abuse in patrons - from a legal
and medical perspective.
* Know the differences between alcohol use, drug use, poly-drug
use, and opiate drug use and withdrawal symptoms in patrons.
* How to know when opiate use by patrons is a police issue
versus a paramedics response.
* Discuss when and if Narcan use by library staff on opiate
overdoes patrons may be a necessity.
* Deal with the safety hazards related to opiate users, their
drugs, and drug paraphernalia, including needles.
This webinar will be of interest to: All library staff, with a
focus for leaders, managers, and supervisors to support their employees as they
respond to this difficult issue.
WebJunction Webinar
“From Facilities to Trauma: Disaster Planning and Community
Resiliency at Your Library”
Date & Time: 30 January 2018. 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, North
America [UTC -5]
Presenter: Michele Stricker, Deputy State
Librarian for Lifelong Learning, New Jersey State Library
Description: Recent catastrophes have highlighted the important role public
libraries play in enhancing their community’s resiliency and post-disaster
recovery efforts. Many community leaders now view libraries as ad hoc disaster
recovery centers and recognize librarians as Information First Responders. This
presentation will help you and your library embrace this new role as
Information First Responders, who quickly enable people to get back to work, back
to their lives, and ensure recovery of the community’s economic life. Learn
what you need to prepare before disaster strikes, guided by New Jersey State
Library’s Disaster
Preparedness & Community Resiliency Toolkit, which has been emergency-tested by libraries. Your library can
be at the forefront in providing that safe haven in times of crisis and helping
your community return to normal life.
