Narrative Expansions by Jess Crilly

Narrative Expansions by Jess Crilly

Libraries across all sectors are responding to the call to decolonise, critically examining their own historic legacies and practices and supporting institutional change. This book brings together current thinking and emerging practices around decolonising the library, providing conceptual frameworks, and describing emerging practices and their impact.

'A unique and unreservedly recommended addition to personal, professional, college and university Library Science collections and supplemental curriculum studies lists'

'This book should be a first port of call for academic librarians and faculty across university departments who seek to support their institution’s wider efforts at embedding anti-racism within the curriculum, as well for those working to achieve more diversity and inclusion in the scholarly material provided for their academic community'
