Reclaiming Ethics, Decolonizing Libraries: Exploring a New Intersectional Framework for Allyship and Ethical Practice

• Author(s) / Creator(s)

  • Ballantyne, Erin M.

• The intersection between Indigenous allyship, intellectual freedom, and social responsibility lies on unsteady ground and is understudied in LIS literature. This presentation employs critical analysis to explore where the tension lies between these concepts and forwards a new interdisciplinary model for ethical practice. The model is based in a human rights approach and draws from nursing literature and philosophy alongside librarianship's long lasting tradition of uncertainty.
