<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Join Kymberlee Powe, Children and YA Consultant for the Connecticut State Library Division of Library Development, as she dives into the makeup of the publishing industry. You will learn how to identify the
difference between a diverse collection and an inclusive one, and walk through the logistics of performing a diversity audit of your collection. The examples and resources provided in this session will focus on youth collections; however, the methodology of
performing a diversity audit, and the reasons to do so, are universal to all collections.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
