Following in the footsteps of last week’s informal volunteer sharing session, in this week’s AGO Volunteers Connector series, Meeting #4 Wednesday July 29, from 5-6pm, we’re sharing our favourite books/readings.
Which author has been keeping you company in this time? What kinds of articles do you find yourself turning to most? New voices? Old favourites? This will be a more interactive call with an opportunity for volunteers to share what you’re enjoying these days. Tell us about your favourite author, or share a recent reading that made a real impact.
(In an earlier Volunteers Connector talk, several volunteers shared that they had been reading me and white supremacy by Layla F. Saad. This is a great opportunity to share what you’ve learned).
New to sharing over Zoom? There are a few ways to share:
- Point your webcam at the book’s cover (best by phone, laptop or whatever other device you’re on)
- Click on “share screen” to show your favourite book in Zoom
- Make your book cover your background!
We have a hunch many of us are turning to reading in this more solitary time, so we’re hoping this weekly theme resonates. A reminder: this isn’t a mandatory show-and-tell; just a chance to connect with each other and share some recommended reads.
