Recent events have shown us that people need to be heard, and need to have a vehicle to share their thoughts on a variety of topics, including potentially challenging ones such as white privilege and racism in librarianship. So we are launching “ILA Voices”. ILA Voices is a new electronic publication that will act as a platform for members to share their perspectives, thoughts, concerns, and opinions on read-world issues impacting the library world.
This mini-newsletter will feature an editorial every Monday from an ILA member, Executive Board member, Committee Chair, or Forum Manager covering an issue they feel is timely and relevant to the profession. Additional content will include news articles and possibly events.
If you would like to submit an editorial now, please e-mail Tamara Jenkins, at tjenkins@ila.org, with the subject line “ILA Voices”.
