Please join ALA Equity, Diversity & Inclusion Implementation Working Group
members *Melissa Cardenas-Dow* and *LaJuan Pringle* for a free webinar
hosted by the Office for Diversity, Literacy, and Outreach Services
(ODLOS): “*Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & ALA: An Equitable Future for
Libraries and the Profession.” *The webinar will be held on *Tuesday, May
15, 2018, *from 1:30-2:30pm Central time (11:30 am-12:30 pm Pacific | 12:30
pm-1:30 pm Mountain | 2:30 pm-3:30 pm Eastern).

The webinar will cover the work of ALA’s Task Force on Equity, Diversity,
and Inclusion (TFEDI) and the subsequent group, the Equity, Diversity and
Inclusion Implementation Working Group (EDI-IWG), to nurture the values of
equity, diversity, inclusion and social justice within the American Library
Association (ALA). In 2016, TFEDI developed a plan and strategic actions to
build more equity, diversity, and inclusion among ALA members, the field of
librarianship, and our communities. As these recommendations shifted to the
initial stewardship of EDI-IWG in 2016 to 2018, we continue the public and
honest conversations that help keep these issues at the forefront. Working
Group members LaJuan Pringle and Melissa Cardenas-Dow will present the
recommendations in the context of the future of librarianship, the future
of EDI work within ALA, and the future of information services to our
communities within the United States. All library workers will benefit from
learning how they can contribute to this important work.
