SUMMARY:The Handbook of Black Librarianship – School Librarians
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for another session in our series celebrating 
 the Handbook of Black Librarianship. In recognition of National Library 
 Week and School Library Month\, our April webinar will feature interviews 
 with several veteran school librarians. These leaders will share their 
 experiences and philosophies regarding changemaking as librarians of color 
 in schools\, including the importance of representation\, promoting 
 diversity\, equity\, and inclusion\, and culturally responsive 
 pedagogy.\n\nThis webinar will be recorded for later viewing by those

 \n\nThe Handbook of Black Librarianship was first published in 1977\, 
 intended to “provide reference information on the relationship of 
 Afro-Americans to various aspects of librarianship and libraries.” 
 Compiled and edited by E.J. Josey during his time as Chief of the Bureau of 
 Specialist Library Services for the New York State Library\, this volume 
 provided resources for developing African/Afro-American collections\, 
 program guidance for serving Black youth\, directories of library school 
 programs primarily attended by Black students\, and essays from Black 
 educators\, writers\, librarians\, and more. A second edition was published 
 in 2000\, adding to and updating the first volume. \n\nA third edition has 
 just been published\, edited by Andrew "Sekou” Jackson\, Marva L. 
 Deloach\, and Michele Fenton. Beyond updating previous volumes\, the new 
 edition adds over 70 new essays on Vital Issues\, Service to Our 
 Communities\, Library Technology\, Wisdom from Retirees\, Global Issues\, 
 and Banned Books and Censorship. In this webinar\, you will hear from the 
 editors about their relationship to the Handbook\, how this edition came to 
 be\, and how you can use it to engage with your library and its community.
