Social Justice Design and Implementation in Library and Information
Science presents a range of case studies that have successfully
implemented social justice as a designed strategy to generate
community-wide changes and social impact. Each chapter in the
collection presents innovative practices that are strategized as
intentional, deliberate, systematic, outcome-based, and
impact-driven. They demonstrate effective examples of social
justice design and implementation in LIS to generate meaningful
outcomes across local, regional, national, and international
settings. Including reflections on challenges and opportunities in
academic, public, school, and special libraries, museums, archives,
and other information-related settings, the contributions present
forward-looking strategies that transcend historical and outdated
notions of neutral stance and passive bystanders. Showcasing the
intersections of LIS concepts and interdisciplinary theories with
traditional and non-traditional methods of research and practice,
the volume demonstrates how to further the social justice
principles of fairness, justice, equity/equality, and empowerment
of all people, including those on the margins of society. Social
Justice Design and Implementation in Library and Information
Science will be of great interest to LIS educators, scholars,
students, information professionals, library practitioners, and all
those interested in integrating social justice and inclusion
advocacy into their information-related efforts to develop
impact-driven, externally focused, and community-relevant outcomes.
