Assessing Academic Library Collections for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
This book provides a practical, step-by-step approach to designing and implementing evaluation projects targeting a variety of DEI goals in academic library collections.Offering both flexibility and detailed guidance, Assessing Academic Library Collections for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion begins with a discussion of aspects of diversity that librarians could target in their assessment projects and notes project planning considerations such as defining a scope and timeline. It particularly notes how larger academic libraries can narrow the scope of a project to make it feasible. Subsequent chapters explain different methods for assessing a collection, with many examples throughout.Methods include: - List-checking involves comparing the collection to a list of recommended books.- Metadata searching produces a count of library holdings that contain certain subject headings or use specific call numbers.- Diversity coding allows staff to create their own categories and assign them to books in a sample.All three of these methods can be used to analyze the collection by subject matter. It is possible to use diversity coding to examine author identities as well, a sensitive endeavor for which this book provides both cautions and guidance. A fourth approach focuses on organizational efforts or inputs. This method involves tracking and reflecting on the library's progress towards goals the staff have set, which could involve a variety of collections-related activities, including staff development, changes to workflows, revising policies, or increasing outreach. The book describes advantages and limitations of the four methods, allowing librarians to make an informed choice of which to use. It also offers resources for implementing each of these strategies as well as guidance on creating one's own evaluation tools. Three chapters by guest authors provide examples of DEI assessment projects from academic libraries. A concluding chapter discusses sharing findings and suggests a range of changes libraries can make to their collecting practices.

The Reason to Write Workbook
Following on from The Reason to Write, Tahir's Shah's acclaimed masterclass on writing, this series of Workbooks provides a boot camp for 'real writers'.Arranged by theme, the Workbooks cover the genres of Travel, Fiction, Historical Fiction, Fantasy, and Teaching Stories, and are designed to work the writing muscle of both new and experienced authors through exercises and repetition.Tahir Shah says in the series introduction: The fact that you are holding this book in your hands tells me that you're a writer.You may not see yourself one... not yet... but you are. Believe in it, really believe, and you're going to find yourself embarking on the most incredible and unexpected journey of your life. First, there's something I'd like you to do...If you're sitting down, get out of the chair, and go into your bathroom.Switch on the light, go over to the mirror, and look at yourself.Don't look at your hair, brow, cheeks, or chin.Look at your eyes.Or, rather, look into your eyes.Push your face up close so you see them and nothing else.Stare into them, and into your soul.While you're staring, greet yourself, calm yourself, and say the following words out loud: I am a writer.I can feel it in my bones.I am ready to embark on the greatest adventure of my life.
