SRRT (Social Responsibilities Round Table)

last person joined: 2 days 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.

Registration Open for Prison Library Support Network Abolitionist Futures 2025 Kickoff Event on March 10!

  • 1.  Registration Open for Prison Library Support Network Abolitionist Futures 2025 Kickoff Event on March 10!

    Posted Feb 10, 2025 10:10 AM

    Please join Prison Library Support Network (PLSN) to kick off our quarterly Abolitionist Futures series on March 10 @ 7:00–8:30 pm ET with a screening of Before Time/After Time, followed by a discussion with the creative team and ensemble members. 

    Before Time/After Time takes audiences on a journey through the lives of nine returned citizens who share fragments of their lives before and after incarceration. The piece is a tribute to their resilience, compassion, and generosity and an example of the communities that the arts can create- communities where self-realization, shared goals, and transformation are made possible. Watch the film trailer here!
