Abstract
Scholarly communication has been shaped by professions that are overwhelmingly whiteâacademia, publishing, and librarianship. Gatekeeping practices, from peer review to library collection development, have marginalized contributions by and about communities of colour. This talk will examine how scholarly communication has excluded voices of colour from the scholarly record and explore the responsibility libraries have in centring the voices and stories of communities of colour.

Thank you for being here. I’m excited to talk to you all about voices of colour and the scholarly record. Publishing is the publication and sharing of research and scholarship. Libraries are the major market for scholarly publishing, deciding whether and how publications are found by researchers.
