This book shows how to integrate cultural humility, a process of self-awareness of personal and cultural biases and sensitivity to significant cultural issues of others, into librarianship.
Cultural Humility in Libraries: A Call to Action and Strategies for Success explores some of the challenges that libraries and librarians face due to diversity and inclusion issues among library staff, as well as the patrons that they serve. Including more than 30 contributors, it offers best practice strategies, tempered by experiences and wisdom, and is uniquely equipped to provide the catalyst for a call to action for libraries to be proactive and intentional promoters and receivers of diversity and inclusion.
