Core Webinar: Best of Core Forum: How to Have an Inclusive Collection Even When Your Institution Isn’t
CHICAGO — Join Core for the webinar "Best of Core Forum: How to Have an Inclusive Collection Even When Your Institution Isn’t" on October 6, 2026, at 1 p.m. CDT. How can you ensure your collection is inclusive for all, even if your institution isn’t focused on or supportive of DEIB? Let’s look at how all libraries (with a special focus on school libraries) can create inclusive collections representative of all students and people, even when the institutions themselves might not be the most inclusive. We’ll talk about ways to create policies, teach challenging topics or books, create displays, and handle questions. This session is open to librarians of all types!
