Register your team for Equity in Action: Building Diverse Collections and you’ll increase your impact and save with group rates. Library Journal offers group discounts so that your team can learn together and start cultivating inclusive and equitable collections at your library right away. 

Your team will learn how to conduct a diversity audit and evaluate books and media through an inclusive lens that includes the experiences of LGBTQIA people, people of color, and ethnic, cultural, and religious minorities.

When you sign up as a group, your team will be placed in the same small workshop group, where discussions and project-based assignments receive feedback from an experienced librarian. 

The speaker program runs on Tuesdays, April 27, May 4, and 11, 2-4PM ET (recordings available on-demand) with an ongoing workshop over three+ weeks.
