Prioritizing ALSC’s BIPOC members will further support ALSC’s strategic objective of increasing the intentional retention of a diverse membership, while reducing barriers to participation. Submit your application by November 13.

School librarian Deah Hester writes: “My school district in central Texas began the school year in late August with three weeks of online learning only. On September 9, we allowed families to choose between online learning or face-to-face learning, and we have now been open for three weeks with about 50% of our students on campus. In that time, we’ve faced many challenges and decisions that I wish we had been able to more fully consider before we opened our doors. If your school hasn’t yet welcomed students back in person, here’s some things to consider.”

Monica Chin writes: “Just two-thirds of rural Americans have broadband access, per Pew Research Center, compared to three-quarters of urban residents and 79% of suburban residents.

Two campuses are halting diversity efforts in relation to the White House’s recent executive order against “divisive concepts” in federally funded programs. In a campus memo, University of Iowa interim associate vice president for diversity, equity, and inclusion Liz Tovar recommended pausing programs for two weeks “given the seriousness of the penalties for noncompliance with the order, which include the loss of federal funding.” John A. Logan College in Illinois also suspended diversity events, including a Hispanic Heritage Month talk planned for next week.

Library educator and consultant Jill Hurst-Wahl writes: “Looking through notes I’d taken in an old work journal—and then looking at blog posts I’ve written—I can see this ongoing focus on diversifying library science students and library staff. This is something the profession has talked about for a long time and has engaged in focused activities. Sadly, the overall diversity of our LIS programs and library staff is not what we want it to be. Why?”

Michael Crider writes: “Broken electronics are awful, not just because of the material loss, but because they’re very hard to repurpose or repair once something primary has failed. We won’t lie: Sometimes your options for safe disposal of hardware and for securing your personal data are limited. But we’ve created a rough guide on what to do next when your gadget breaks.”
