The SCONUL BAME group will host its inaugural Allies Forum on Tuesday 14 September from 1-3pm. 

Black, Asian and minority ethnic staff members and their allies are invited to come together to discuss what it means to be an ally and to share best practice and experiences. Jess Gardner, University Librarian at Cambridge University will provide the opening address and members from the SCONUL community will share case studies of successful partnerships. 

If you have colleagues for whom this may be of interest, we would be grateful if you could pass the details on to them. We would also encourage all interested staff to sign up to lis-sconul (by sending an e-mail request to sconul@sconul.ac.uk) so that we can keep them informed about future events.

The Forum will be held online via Zoom.
