Academic Libraries: Diana TallentDiversity in LibrarianshipDiversity in LibrarianshipWith attention laser focused on the current pandemic of racism, adding a link to the ALA's page, "The World Is Changing: Why Aren’t We?
Recruiting Minorities to Librarianship"
by Jenifer Grady and Tracie Hall seems vitally important. I work at the most diverse college in the state of Minnesota, yet, when they hired a new librarian just over a year ago, they did not hire a diverse candidate. Providing some recruitment startegies for reaching diverse candidates, as this page does, would help promote this important work. 		I have revised this description according to Dr. L's guidance: With attention laser focused on the current pandemic of racism, recruitment strategies for reaching diverse candidates are crucial to libraries. "The World Is Changing: Why Aren’t We? Recruiting Minorities to Librarianship" by Jenifer Grady and Tracie Hall, featured on the American Library Association site provides guidance for this important process.
