How to Build Inclusive Collections: On-Demand Course + 3-Week Workshop

Create library collections that are inclusive and reflect a diverse range of people, stories, and experiences by learning how to conduct a diversity audit and ensure representation across lived experiences.

Library collections must be diverse and inclusive, offering windows into and reflections of the vast array of people, stories and experiences that make up our world. In this course, you’ll learn from live session recordings from an outstanding group of experts as they explore key concepts essential to cultivating and promoting inclusive and equitable collections. In the three-week workshop, you’ll conduct a diversity and inclusion audit of your collections, and hear from your group facilitator about ways to include wider perspectives from and about LGBTQIA+ people, Black, indigenous, and people of color, and historically underrepresented ethnicities, cultures, and religions. You’ll learn how to ensure that your collections are more reflective of the diversity of your community and the larger world.
