Excited to see our Anti-racism reading list is the Resource List of the Month. It's been a great piece of work bringing this content together - originally intended to support our own staff @waikato

[Talis @talis]

Congratulations to our Resource List of the Month - The University of Waikato! ✨

We love its use of categorisation, providing an excellent introduction to the topic, with content targeted at specific audiences depending on their needs.

Excited to share the first piece in our series on our new Māori and Pacific focused roles we put in place last year as part of commitment to our new Library Plan and becoming an anti-racist institution https://t.co/e0NK4uSuk9

[Michelle Blake @Michelle_Blake]

@niamhpage Have a great break and all the best for the new role!

[Michelle Blake @Michelle_Blake]

@gbrannanarchive I'd blame @mkhokhar 😆

[Michelle Blake @Michelle_Blake]

We are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic workplace, so if you're excited about this role but your past experience doesn't align perfectly, we encourage you to get in touch or just apply. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.

[Michelle Blake @Michelle_Blake]

We're currently advertising for our Te Mata Aurei (Māori Teaching and Learning Advisor). The role will support the delivery of our Library Plan 2022-2025 and help support the University's goals to embed mātauranga Māori in the curriculum.

[Michelle Blake @Michelle_Blake]

Don't meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that some groups of people are less likely to apply for jobs unless they meet every single qualification.
