    Save the date! The third annual Diversity, Equity, Race, Accessibility, and Identity in LIS (DERAIL) Forum will be taking place on Saturday and Sunday, March 3-4, 2018 at Simmons College in Boston. DERAIL is a student-run and student-centered experience meant to create a productive and mindful space to explore the impacts of social justice frameworks in guiding our work as students and practitioners in the LIS field. We are looking for participants and presenters. Registration and proposal submissions will open on November 1 through our website. Both in-person and virtual attendance and presentations are welcomed.
