ARLD Day 2022 Virtual Conference

 

STUDENT REGISTRATION IS ONLY $5!!!!

ARLD Day registration is open until May 2!

ARLD Day will be held via zoom on May 6, 2022, at 8:30am-3:15pm.

We have an excellent line-up of sessions this year that you won’t want to miss!

We are also very excited to announce our keynote speaker:


Connecting the Dots

Keynote speaker Derrick Jefferson

American University Library, Washington, DC

Connecting the Dots is a conversation led by Derrick Jefferson that explores and examines not just identity, but how multiple intersectional identities engage on both personal and professional fronts.

How do these identities work in conjunction? Do they coexist? Work in parallel? Create tension? Or do they collide? How do we deal with these results? And how do they inform how we do our jobs?

This presentation will explore issues of justice, equity, diversity, inclusion, and labor in librarianship by centering ourselves and our roles in the library. 

Derrick Jefferson is a member of the library faculty at American University in Washington, D.C. His research is focused on justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion issues, specifically in higher education libraries, and mentoring new librarians to the profession. He was selected as an ALA Emerging Leader in 2015, is an alum of the Institute for Research Design in Librarianship at Loyola Marymount University and is currently enrolled in the Certificate in OER Librarianship at University of Minnesota. He is also an award-winning writer with prose appearing in Tahoma Literary Review, TriQuarterly, The Adroit Journal, and the anthology, Fat and Queer.

Full event details and registration information are available on the
ARLD Day 2022 event listing.
