CHICAGO—More than ever, library leaders at all levels are asked to design and implement new services and programs on a rapid timeline. How can projects move quickly while engaging equitably with community and staff members? On Wednesday, April 21, discover how a design sprint process can lead a group from ideation to implementation in only five days with the webinar "Service Design In One Week: Design Sprint Basics". This session will explore how a sprint process can set the stage for both innovation and equity when designing a new library service. With lessons from four sprints from a combination of different projects and organizations, attendees will learn how a sprint could be used to tackle priority projects more effectively in less time; build a case for using a sprint design process to move quickly and equitably when creating a new service; identify project types suitable for a sprint design process; and access a service design sprint toolkit with templates and facilitation resources for running their own design sprint.
