<p>Hello all!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>I am so sorry for the last-minute share, but the ACRL Distance and Online Learning Section Anti-Racism and DEI Committee has a panel TODAY at 11a PST entitled "Anti-Oppressive Work in Online Librarianship: Challenges, Strategies, Hopes." More info, and registration
below. I do not have information on if this will be recorded or not. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p>Join us for Anti-Oppressive Work in Online Librarianship: Challenges, Solutions/Strategies, Hopes, a dynamic panel exploring the lived experiences and personal narratives that illuminate anti-racism and EDI in distance and online library services. Members
of the ACRL DOLS Anti-Racism & EDI Committee will share stories and insights into structural barriers perpetuating inequities in digital learning spaces, highlight concrete strategies for programming and instruction, and explore how to cultivate supportive
networks that uplift both librarians and the communities we serve. Whether you’re a seasoned distance librarian or just entering the field, you’ll leave with fresh strategies, meaningful connections, and the momentum to transform your anti-oppressive practice.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>Date & Time: Wednesday, Feb. 12, 2025 / 1 - 2 pm CT / Zoom<o:p></o:p></p>
