<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">I think in regards to the diversity discussion – a possible action step is to reinvigorate the SRRT (Social Responsibilities) roundtable. Here’s the brief description
of the roundtable found on OLA’s webpages, <a href="http://www.olaweb.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=308">
http://www.olaweb.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=308</a>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i>Being socially responsible implies that we have an ethical obligation to act in the best interest of those in our society. The SRRT provides a place for discussion and learning about how we can serve our communities in a socially responsible
way. Respect for diversity, equitable service, and understanding needs-in-context through community involvement are core values of this round table.</i><i><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p></o:p></span></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Any OLA member can join this roundtable simply by checking the SRRT box when you join OLA or renew. You can also add it at any time throughout the year. We
will also need a chair for this roundtable. So…if you are interested in chairing please let me know asap so you can be included in summer discussions as we shape the OLA vision for the upcoming year.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">One of the benefits of participating in a roundtable is that you can sponsor presentations at the annual OLA conference. This means, then, that you could ensure
that our recent, worthwhile discussion is not just continued but made a visible and constant aspect of our Oregon library community and professional organization.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
