ALA resources for promoting diversity in the workplace.
The ALA's EBook Toolkit provides resources to help start and continue the conversation regarding library e-book lending, access issues, and general public awareness. Tools include press release and op-ed templates and guidelines for using them with editorial and news media contacts, news hooks you can use locally, tips for relationship building with media contacts, and links to examples of e-book-related editorials and news stories.
The Engage, Cultivate, Provide and Assess: An Outreach Model for Serving Children and Families white paper outlines a research-based framework for outreach development and supports ALSC’s position on the value that libraries serve in establishing and assessing outreach opportunities in their communities to reach unserved and underserved children and their families.
Every library — academic, public, and school (public, private, charter, independent, and international) — should have a comprehensive written policy that guides the selection, deselection or weeding, and reconsideration of library resources. The most valuable selection policy is current; it is reviewed and revised on a regular basis; and it is familiar to all members of a library’s staff. The policy should be approved by the library’s governing board or other policy-making body and disseminated widely for understanding by all stakeholders.
