Hi, I got your email from a friend who sends library jobs announcements from JMU to this email address.
I’m David, I’m a board member of Weave: The Journal of Library User Experience. We’re sending out a call for volunteers for our board. I wondered if you might share this call to your member’s email list? Also, I wanted to say that I have more than enough professional service on my plate, but I decided to volunteer with Weave because they ask for article pitches. Weave’s volunteer editorial team actually work with authors to help them formulate ideas and help them through the writing process. Their passion for library UX and cultivating good writing in our field is inspiring. I’m happy to answer any questions anyone may have. Thanks for considering!

We realize that the best of our profession are out there advocating for systemic change. Putting together an application for a volunteer position at Weave might not be at the top of your to-do list. So we've extended our deadline for board applications to the end of the month. There is alignment between UX and equitable design, and Weave encourages you to join us. As a board member, you'll be a part of a team that recognizes systemic inequities in academia—and in academic publishing specifically—and is committed to better advancing the work of Black and marginalized scholars. We are aware of the need to build a more racially diverse team, rethink traditional peer review, and dismantle established academic structures that support racial inequity. We are committed to building an editorial staff that reflects the diversity of the library community and our users and specifically encourage applications from the BIPOC community. If appointed, expect to spend 3-10 hours a month on the journal. Terms are for three years with a chance of renewal, beginning August 1, 2020.
