    I respect the work that has gone into this effort.  These protocols are long overdue.  Our university press has negotiated several instances related to working with tribes to publish ethnobotany titles, histories, etc.  Reading these made me wish that the publishing community would get its act together to develop some best practices!  I support ACRL's endorsement of these recommendations and believe once they are endorsed we should be sure to link to these off any EDI libguides.  I can certainly pass this suggestion along to the Diversity Cmte.

    Absolutely have my full endorsement on this. This document is well written and on it's own is a valuable resource.

    And I agree with Fay that these should be linked and widely disseminated.
