Stacie Williams, Learning Lab
manager in the Special Collections Research Center, recently participated in
the Social
Justice Collaboratorium, an invitation-only symposium at the University of
Maryland. The two-day symposium, sponsored by the American Library Association
and the Institute for Museum and Library Services, was based on a resource
created by ALA Spectrum Scholar doctoral students. The event aimed to help
information professionals more fully integrate social justice practice and
theory into regular librarianship.
Stacie joined more than than 30 participants from libraries and
archives across the country, and spent much of the day in active sessions to
develop a mission statement and case use studies for the website. The symposium
also had a significant research component and served to join people who are
creating scholarly works around social justice issues in the field of library
and information science.
So impressed!
