[Libs-Or] State Library Board Meeting, 6/12/2020

Fri May 29 10:27:01 PDT 2020

Hello Max,
Thank you for this suggestion. This is timely given that the State Library Board just approved the State Library’s new strategic plan at their last meeting. We will be sharing the new plan broadly soon, but it does include the following:

Goals

Objectives

Initiatives

Staff integrate equity, diversity, and inclusion principles into daily work, decision-making, and programs and services.

Increase employee equity, diversity, and inclusion competencies.

Host trainings and establish resources that support staff in developing, building, and utilizing competencies.

Increase access to State Library services for underserved populations.

Develop and implement an equity lens for State Library use in reviewing and creating policies, programs, and services that remove barriers and address potential bias.

Assess needs and plan for increased State Library engagement with Oregon’s federally recognized tribes.

We will be discussing progress on all of the strategic plan goals including this one at the State Library Board meetings as we begin implementing this plan. Each board meeting also includes an open forum where anyone can address the State Library Board if you would like to share comments or suggestions.

Thank you!

Jennifer

Greetings State Library Board!

The state board agenda should set aside time to address equity and anti-racism at each meeting.

Respectfully,

Max Macias
