| | Synopsis
|
As part of the profession's ongoing EDISJ efforts to redress
librarianship's problematic past, practitioners from across the field
are questioning long-held library authorities and standards. They're
undertaking a critical and rigorous re-examination of so-called
'best' practices and the decisionmakers behind them, pointing out
heretofore unscrutinized injustices within our library systems of
organization and making concrete steps towards progressive change.
This collection from CORE records the efforts of some of the many
librarians who are working to improve our systems and collections, in
the process inspiring those who have yet to enact change by
demonstrating that this work is scalable, possible, and necessary.
From this book, readers will gain an understanding of the theoretical
underpinning for the actions that create our history and be
challenged to reconsider their perspectives; learn about the
important role of the library catalog in real-world EDISJ initiatives
through examples ranging from accessibility metadata and gendered
information to inclusive comics cataloging and revising LC call
numbers for Black people and Indigenous people; discover more than a
dozen case studies drawn from a variety of contexts including
archives, academic and public libraries, and research institutions;
and see ways to incorporate these ideas into their own work, with a
variety of sample policies, 'how to' documents, and other helpful
tools provided in the text"-Provided by publisher.
