Abstract

Despite demographic changes which indicate larger numbers of racial and ethnic minorities make up most of American society, library and information science (LIS) research remains focused on majority groups. This work proposes ways in which researchers and LIS educators, can incorporate more diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) into their research, especially by making racial and ethnic minorities more visible in it. The main ideas discussed in this regard deal with self-awareness, positionality, and sampling methods. While not exhaustive, the suggestions offered here are straightforward ways in which researchers can become more intentional in their inclusion of historically excluded populations into their research. The ideas shared in this work are aimed at aiding those who are considering the incorporation of DEI topics into their existing research agendas, as well as helping LIS educators set the foundation of sound research which values DEI when guiding students’ research endeavors.

将多样性、公平和包容(DEI)纳入研究
尽管人口结构的变化表明,越来越多的种族和少数民族构成了美国社会的大部分,图书馆和信息科学(LIS)的研究仍然集中在多数群体。这项工作提出了研究人员和美国教育工作者可以将更多的多样性,公平和包容性(DEI)纳入他们的研究的方法,特别是通过使种族和少数民族在研究中更加明显。在这方面讨论的主要思想涉及自我意识,定位和抽样方法。虽然不详尽,但这里提供的建议是直接的方法,研究人员可以更有意地将历史上被排除在外的人群纳入他们的研究。在这项工作中分享的想法旨在帮助那些正在考虑将DEI主题纳入其现有研究议程的人,以及帮助美国教育工作者在指导学生的研究努力时,为重视DEI的良好研究奠定基础。
