Moving from openness to belonging in libraries and archives
ACRL 2021 Virtual Conference Invited Speaker Kaetrena Davis Kendrick
On April 14, the second day of the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) 2021 Virtual Conference, Kaetrena Davis Kendrick invited attendees to think beyond the idea of openness in library and archival spaces a concept that generally involves open access to resources to imagine the idea of

Kendrick, dean of the Ida Jane Dacus Library and Louise Pettus Archives and Special Collections at Winthrop University in Rock Hill, South Carolina, said that her theory of welcome has been proven through her own experience and research, as well as through national and international perspectives on the practice.
