Description
How do Intellectual Freedom and Inclusion contradict each other? How does the library uphold its role as a third space? Recently in library world hate groups or exclusionary events have been taking up space in the library and have brought many conflicting conversations to the forefront of our jobs. Discussion about the gray area between unbiased service and a commitment to diversity and inclusion is more important than ever. Sponsored by OLA IFC (Intellectual Freedom Committee).
