February Discussion - Heritage Months in 2025

  • 1.  February Discussion - Heritage Months in 2025

    Posted Feb 03, 2025 06:13 AM

    Hello NMRT Members!

    The NMRT Online Programs Committee encourages your input on this month's topic!

    Recent changes in policy have led to the elimination of DEI initiatives in the federal government.  Many state governments have also limited or eliminated diversity programs. Now that we are in February, it is officially Black History Month, a time that libraries typically celebrate with displays, programming, and special events.  Have recent changes in policy led to any shifts in the way that your library recognizes Black History Month or other heritage months?

    Please share your responses, so we can help each other navigate this situation.

    With kindest regards,

    Sylvie
