Also true of library campaigners in a white led sector that refuses to acknowledge lack of diversity & unconscious bias within its ranks #Librariessowhite @coates_tim @NickPoole1 Survey reveals overwhelmingly white face of leadership in research libraries https://t.co/rmQc0T2sv7

The assumption that asking for an MLIS is why #librariessowhite ignores the fact that minorities with masters aren't getting hired and/or are leaving the field. The expectation that ppl hiring with their biases would all of a sudden stop post this change is short sighted.

@LibraryJournal @sofiayleung I checked the #LibrariesSoWhite hashtag to see if this was satire but people seriously, genuinely, unironically, believe this.
