Increasing diversity and inclusion can help libraries to fit their collections and services to those who need them and to bring in skilled staff who may have previously been overlooked, both of which are key to serving their communities. This book, written by a librarian with a decade of experience in diversity and inclusion issues, gives clear examples of steps to take and case studies of current initiatives.
Topics covered include:
Readers will be equipped to assess their own library, talk about challenges with more confidence, and make concrete changes to improve diversity and inclusion.
Beth moved into libraries after a career as an evolutionary biologist, seeing than she could have a far greater impact by supporting others than by continuing as a researcher herself.
Beth retrained at the University of Sheffield Information School, and having previously worked as a researcher support librarian at the University of Sheffield, Bishop Grossteste University and the University of Nottingham, is currently Head of Library and Information Services at the Francis Crick Institute. Beth has a wealth of experience working in equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) projects and campaigns. In 2020 Beth jointly won the Royal Society Athena Prize for setting up the LGBTQ+ STEMinar, a conference designed to give a space where researchers in the STEM fields can discuss and present their research in a supporting atmosphere. Beth has also previously been shortlisted for the Gay Times Barbara Burford Award for Excellence in STEM.
Previously as the Diversity and Inclusions Officer for the Yorkshire and Humberside CILIP Members' Network and currently as Co-chair of the CILIP LGBTQ+ Network, Beth works with other Librarians to help them support Equality, Diversity and Inclusions efforts within the Libraries sector. She is also a strong supporter of UKSG and has recently joined the editorial board at the journal Insights.
Beth lives in Yorkshire with her wife and currently spends her free time reading, gardening, powerlifting and playing computer games. An eclectic mix.
