Recenzii

"Organized around five key themes—equity, diversity, inclusion, intellectual freedom, and learning communities—the volume invites readers to reflect on their practice through a set of essential questions that open the book and lay out shared ­experiences across the world, showing how librarians can ­better themselves, their library spaces and ­programs, and the users around them ... The ­essays translate broad professional ideals into concrete, adaptable practices, supplemented with discussion questions, charts, and examples that support reflection and professional growth. It feels like a mini-­conference poster session, well executed and thematically ­cohesive."
— School Library Journal
