Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) has been widely adopted by academia as a goal—it is even being added to accreditation standards. Open Access (OA) content promises equitable access without paywall barriers, thus helping to level the playing field for users without privilege. OA supports and inspires researchers in underprivileged groups and regions—diversifying the voice of the resulting research. OA also allows alumni a vast, easily-accessible resource for lifelong learning. Join us to explore these ideas and others with a panel of librarians that are on the front lines of using OA to help move the needle on DEI at their institutions. Presenters: Chris Baker, Circulation Librarian, Presell R. Robinson Library Thedis Bryant, Interim Director of Library Services, Alabama A&M University Veronica Henderson, Digital Collections & Scholarship Librarian, Alabama A&M University Mantra Henderson, Director of Library Services, James H. White Library, Mississippi Valley State University Rick Branham, VP Pre-Sales, Academic & Content Solutions, CloudSource OA [Session Moderator] |
