PLA Webinar on Racial Equity Offered, and ALSC Summer Reading Lists Available

PLA Webinar “Engaged and Inclusive: Libraries Embracing Racial Equity and Social Justice:”   On Wed., June 8, 2016, the Public Library Association will host a webinar focusing on social justice and racial equity.  Goals of the webinar are:

  • Understand the role public libraries have to play in social justice, including how this approach relates to and differs from civic engagement and community outreach;
  • Take away concrete programmatic ideas and inspiration for ways public libraries can operate as a platform for social justice action and learning; and
  • Know tools libraries can use to advance racial equity and social justice within your institution, and to better understand and inform outward-facing initiatives and internal culture.

Check the website for registration details and costs: www.ala.org/pla/onlinelearning/webinars/socialjustice
