- Author(s) / Creator(s)

How is our racial identity, as BIPOC in LIS, formed and expressed through our beliefs and practices in different knowledge institutions like libraries and social media? What do we feel safe to say and what is left unsaid? When faced with the consistent looming presence of white supremacy in both the infrastructure of LIS and of social media, what do we do to protect our peace and/or build solidarity? This research focuses on findings from interviews conducted in 2023 with a select few BIPOC students and alumni from graduate level LIS programs in Canada to attempt to answer these questions.
