Abstract
Using theory and examples drawn from practice, this presentation considers the role of organizational development (OD) in the vital work of dismantling oppressive systems and building diverse, equitable, and inclusive academic libraries and research organizations. Participants should be able to identify OD practices common in academic libraries and evaluate their potential for transformational EDI work; describe principles and theories related to EDI, social justice, and antiracism and apply these concepts toward an academic library environment; engage in deep practice to self-reflect and take personal action.
