Humanizing LIS Education and Practice: Diversity by Design is a groundbreaking book that emphasizes the relevance of diversity concerns to all and advocates for a systematic approach to addressing them. Developed by Dali and Caidi in 2017, the Diversity by Design concept promotes a diversity mindset and is divided into three parts. The chapters within this volume have been written by an international team of seasoned academics and practitioners who integrate diversity into their professional and scholarly activities.
Building on the Diversity by Design approach, the book presents case studies with practice models for two primary audiences: LIS educators and LIS practitioners. These chapters cover a wide range of issues, including academic promotion and tenure, decolonizing LIS education, engaging Indigenous and multicultural communities, librarians' professional development in diversity and social justice, and decolonizing library access practices and policies.
As a collection, the book showcases a systems-thinking approach to fostering diversity and inclusion in LIS, integrating it by design into the LIS curriculum and professional practice. The book calls on individuals, organizations, policymakers, and LIS educators to make diversity integral to their daily activities and curriculum. Humanizing LIS Education and Practice: Diversity by Design is a valuable resource for anyone engaged in research and professional practice in Library and Information Science.
