Abstract

Scholarly communication has been shaped by professions that are overwhelmingly white–academia, publishing, and librarianship.

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.
