<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you to everyone who joined in with the two part TSRT (Technical Services Round Table) sponsored DEI discussion, the first held on 7/17, the other on 7/24. It was a very fruitful discussion and I appreciate our OLA community coming
together to talk about these important aspects to DEI, in particular to Technical Services and discovery of library materials. Furthermore, I also want to thank everyone who expressed interested in our session for which you were unable to attend. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve heard from many that they would like access to the PowerPoint discussion questions as well as the video links to the discussion. All of these resources are now available on the TSRT website, Resources page, at the bottom we have a
section dedicated to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. I did experience technical difficulties in the part 1 discussion on 7/17, so unfortunately, we only have access to the second half of that discussion.<o:p></o:p></p>
