On the move with the Library's Health, safety and wellness committee

The Library's own Health, safety and wellness committee is always focused on supporting the wellness of Library staff through training, initiative, activities and blog posts. The committee's meetings always keep their own wellness in mind, including starting off with an around-the-table check-in of members to share what's going on in their work and personal lives.

Why do moving meetings work for you?

"Moving meetings are a great way to break up the routine of sitting at a desk or boardroom table, and really keep me engaged.

I also love getting outside for a change of scenery and some fresh air!"

- Melanie Hannaford, Office administrator

Sharon Lamont, Director, Organizational services

Sharon has always been an advocate for wellness at work, and it's an important aspect of her portfolio, including overseeing the Library's own Health, Safety and Wellness Committee. She was also the catalyst for getting the Library involved in the MEET + MOVE challenge!

We asked Sharon about her experience with moving meetings to help inspire and motivate our University of Waterloo community to take their meetings on the road.

What's your favourite thing about the walk-and-talk?

"I think moving meetings allow the conversation to flow nicely along with the movement of walking.

I also really enjoy the opportunity to go outside and get some Vitamin D."

- Mary Lynne Bartlett, Student engagement coordinator
