The Design for Diversity project\, supported by the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services\, focuses on the ways in which information systems embody and reinforce cultural norms\, asking how we can design systems that account for diverse cultural materials and ways of knowing. As part of this project we are building a collaborative pedagogical toolkit to encourage inclusive and ethical practices in information sciences and system design. It will include an expanding set of materials including sample assignments\, curricular modules\, suggested readings\, and case studies\, and the Digital Library Federation will eventually host the Toolkit as a growing community-driven resource.\n\nJoin us to hear about what we've learned through the past two years and give a thorough review to the draft teaching and learning Toolkit\, which will be published in November 2018. The first day will provide a forum for a broad review of the Toolkit.\n\n9:00 Welcome and breakfast\n\n9:30 Project Report \n Design for Diversity Grant Team\n\n10:30 Break\n\n10:45 Toolkit Website: Group Review and Discussion \n\n Design for Diversity Grant Team and forum participants\n\n12:00 Lunch\n\n1:00 Guided Q&A: Archives in the Field: The Civil Rights and Restorative Justice Project\n\n Rhonda Jones \n\nRhonda D.
