Abstract
Three library and information science
educators, scholars, and prior practitioners
were invited to address the question: What
is the academic library’s role in resisting and
eradicating systemic inequalities in science/
systems of knowledge to advance multiple
ways of knowing? This column engages
global perspectives on the need for academic
libraries to stop reproducing institutional and
systemic racism and other forms of discrimination,
while advancing multiple ways of conducting
research and learning, reimagining scholarship and science in higher education, and engaging epistemological thinking that
examines knowledge systems and power.
