What Public Libraries Are Doing Now to Create Effective Inclusion & Diversity Training Programs

Recently I was asked about the new trends in diversity training in libraries. This piqued my curiosity to learn more about current trends in libraries as well as in the corporate and public sector. I sent out a quick survey to 12 WebJunction members who provide human resources and/or training at their libraries and eight members took the survey. In addition, I reached out to inclusion and diversity managers at a large corporation, a non-profit and a large city to hear about emerging trends at their workplace. As I received a number of emails interested in the results, here are the findings from the survey and my interviews.
