SRRT (Social Responsibilities Round Table)

last person joined: 14 hours ago 

The Social Responsibilities Round Table works to make ALA more democratic and to establish progressive priorities not only for the Association, but also for the entire profession. Concern for human and economic rights was an important element in the founding of SRRT and remains an urgent concern today. SRRT believes that libraries and librarians must recognize and help solve social problems and inequities in order to carry out their mandate to work for the common good and bolster democracy.

The session will be held on Wednesday, February 21, 2024, at 10:00 am Pacific / 1:00 pm Eastern.


    About the session:

    Are you interested in helping underserved youth in your local community? If so, this session is for you! During this session, I share my journey developing a book club for local incarcerated youth impacted by gangs and gang violence. The session will highlight creative lesson planning via incorporating art, graphic novels, creative writing, and transformative group discussions to engage youth of all ages and reading levels. In addition, I share lessons I've learned along the way.
