On 7/11/23 the Montana State Library Commission voted to withdraw from the American Library Association due to the election of Emily Drabinski as President of #ALA. Stated reasons for this separation include Drabinski’s self-describing as a “Marxist lesbian.”
Emily is a dear colleague, thought leader, and #CalRBS instructor. Faculty in the #UCLA Department of Information Studies have signed this letter denouncing this decision: <https://ucla.box.com/s/tjt2wz0e59uf73ybr5dwmvpwpl6wskhm>. In solidarity, and onward!
