Radical School Librarianship

School librarians perform a critical and frontline role in defending equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) within their school communities. Radical School Librarianship invites readers to learn from the experiences of other school librarians, in order to find inspiration, support and strategies to continue promoting EDI. Each chapter will address a particular topic, written by experienced and international librarians. Bringing stories from Australia, Croatia, India, Malaysia, Nigeria, South Africa and the UK, chapters will cover topics such as: How literacy is promoted within difficult educational landscapes How book banning and censorship are dealt with, such as through awards How libraries can be adapted to various needs in order to create a reading habit This book is an essential read for school librarians and teachers looking to gain a better understanding of actions taken to create environments where EDI can thrive.
