SUMMARY:“A Dreamer With A Tiny Spark:” E.J. Josey Transforms the Modern Library Profession
DESCRIPTION:E.J. Josey rose to prominence in the library profession by 
 compelling the American Library Association (ALA) to live up to its creed 
 of equality for all.  During his professional career\, spanning over fifty 
 years (1952-2002)\, Josey worked as a librarian (1953-1966)\, an 
 administrator of library services (1966-1986)\, and as a professor of 
 library science (1986-1995). He also served as President of the American 
 Library Association and perhaps his most notable achievement\, successfully 
 drafting a resolution that prevented state library associations from 
 discriminating against Black librarians. Josey’s transformative 
 leadership provides a model to tackle today’s civil rights challenges 
 both in and outside the library profession.\n\nRenate Chancellor is 
 Associate Professor and Associate Dean for Diversity\, Equity\, Inclusion\, 
 and Accessibility for the School of Information Studies at Syracuse 
 University. She received her Master’s and Ph.D. in Information Studies 
 from UCLA. Dr. Chancellor’s research centers around human information 
 behavior\, organizational leadership\, social justice in library and 
 information science\, and library and information science education. She 
 has published in scholarly journals and presented her research in national 
 and international venues. Her book\, E.J. Josey: Transformational Leader in 
 the Modern Library Profession\, has received widespread critical acclaim. 
 Her next biography\, Breaking Glass Ceilings: Clara Stanton Jones and the 
 Detroit Public Library is scheduled for release in March 2024. She is a 
 recipient of the Association for Library and Information Science Education 
 (ALISE) Leadership Award and the ALISE Excellence in Teaching Award.\n\n
