Please join us for the Minnesota Library Association’s Instruction Round Table workshop, Introduction to Anti-Racist Pedagogy for Librarians, presented by Melissa Prescott, Professor and Research Librarian at St. Cloud State University.
In this workshop, participants will:
- Identify and examine issues of systemic racism in libraries
- Reflect on their social location and how it manifests in libraries and specifically the library instruction classroom
- Apply anti-racist pedagogy to an existing or new assignment, activity, program, project, or event
A suggested reading list will be sent out to registered participants to help prepare for the workshop.
