Abstract
SCORE’s Fall 2020 webinar, Implementing Anti-Racist Practices Across the Scholarly Communication Lifecycle, was held December 10 and featured presentations by Jaime Ding (Cal Poly San Luis Obispo), Charlotte Roh (Univ. of San Francisco), and Michele Gibney (Univ. of the Pacific). The webinar was moderated by Dana Ospina (CSU Dominguez Hills). -Jaime introduced the LORDS (LibGuides Open Review Discussion Session) project, an initiative that works towards cultivating a community across California State University Libraries to provide space for critique, conversation, and criticality using critical race theory to acknowledge structures of publishing, libraries, and reference. -Charlotte discussed representation and the lack of diversity in publishing, specifically academic publishing but also other kinds of publishing, and how libraries are complicit and can do more. -Michele presented on a charge received by the library this fall to perform a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion audit of library collections and resources. She discussed determining methodologies and criteria along with findings so far, student involvement as research interns this spring, planning university-wide conversations for next fall, and projected changes to collection development policies.
