CENL Webinar: Diversity & Inclusion in National Libraries with Bonnie Greer – now available to watch online

Now available to watch online

Just before the Christmas break, CENL organised a panel on diversity and inclusion in national libraries with guest speaker Bonnie Greer for a keynote exploring the very nature and meaning of diversity itself. Bonnie discussed national libraries and their discontents, and libraries as creators of a “unified theory”. She spoke from personal experience and her ‘Era Of Reclamation work’ with the British Museum.

The event was chaired by Dr Sandra Collins, Director of the National Library of Ireland. Further guest panellists included Karin Grӧnvall, Director of the National Library of Sweden, and Cecile Communal in her role as Co-Chair of the British Library LGBTQ+ Network.
