Narrative expansions : interpreting decolonisation in academic libraries
Crilly, J (ed)
Narrative expansions : interpreting decolonisation in academic libraries - London : Facet Publishing, 2022 - xxxi, 263p.
The demand to decolonise the curriculum has moved from a protest movement at the margins to the centre of many institutions, as reflected by its inclusion in policies and strategies and numerous initiatives in libraries and archives that have responded to the call and are critically examining their own historic legacies and practices to support institutional and societal change. This book explores the ways in which academic libraries are working to address the historic legacies of colonialism, in the context of decolonising the curriculum and the university. Bringing together the theory and practice of an area of critical concern to the academy, this book is an important reference for academic librarians, educators and researchers in LIS, education and sociology.
