• Recruit and retain a diverse library staff.
• Train and develop staff in cultural competency.
• Promote understanding of implicit bias, and work to shape our organization to limit it.
• Intentionally find ways to be more inclusive. 
• Promote equity and accessibility in collections, and the allocation of resources to support DEI initiatives in all areas of Fondren Library.
