*Engaging Our Communities Through EDI Work: Our Perspectives*

*Wednesday, November 17 at 9 AM PDT*

Zoom Link: https://sjsu.zoom.us/j/82868881853

*Presenters: Ray Pun & Patrice Green*

This session will share how two librarians engage their communities through
the values of equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI). As the field of
librarianship continues to evolve, library workers have become more
cognizant of what it means to share authority and knowledge inside and
outside of their silos while working toward a more inclusive set of values.
Recognizing librarianship as more than internal, transactional exchanges
with limited audiences is essential to engaging in more reparative and
meaningful work with community partners. From special collections to
programming, both speakers will address the opportunities and challenges in
integrating EDI into their respective activities.
