Using Critical Reflection to Navigate Complex Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Issues in the Library
2023 Core Forum
(2023)
Abstract
Over the last several years, diversity, equity, and inclusion have become critical issues for the library community. This essential focus is codified in the Diversity section of the American Libraries Association’s “Core Values of Librarianship”. At the same time, the tremendous benefit of creating more inclusive libraries is becoming increasingly apparent. Everything from improving a library’s ability to respond to the needs of its community to attracting a workforce with broad skills can be improved by building inclusive libraries.
