I just watched Heidi present with K.C. Boyd at the EMIERT Chair's Program Promoting Multicultural Library Services in Virtual Spaces at the ALA digital conference. It was a great presentation, and the comments in the Q&A space were very positive. EMIERT is planning to make the presentation available on their website, so I will send the link so everyone can see it.
How did this happen? I pushed to be on the EMIERT Program Committee. The Chair's Program was already set and was to be a very theoretical program about ethnic materials. When everything changed, the in-person program wouldn't work online, and the committee had to come up with a new program quickly, I suggested Heidi to join a DC school librarian to talk about this topic, and we are so lucky she agreed. I can't tell you how happy I am with how the program turned out. It really brought out the diversity of materials to have speakers from such different backgrounds. Thank you, Heidi, for stepping up and preparing for this program on short notice that will reach a broad audience. You are a superstar.
