Abstract
Abstract The Harriet F. Ginsburg Health Sciences Library at the University of Central Florida College of Medicine collaborated with the college’s Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion to enhance its existing diversity programming, created to foster a sense of community throughout the college. Through this partnership, a library-driven idea for an occasional diversity-themed lunch and learn session gained valuable institutional support and transformed into a larger event series. A second related project emerged with a goal of creating a diversity corner for the college. These collaborative efforts have helped the library further its mission to be an inclusive entity within the college and have afforded the library greater programming reach.
中佛罗里达大学医学院的Harriet F. Ginsburg健康科学图书馆与学院的多样性、公平和包容办公室合作,加强其现有的多样性项目,旨在培养整个学院的社区意识。通过这种合作关系,图书馆推动的偶尔以多样性为主题的午餐和学习会议的想法获得了宝贵的机构支持,并转变为更大的活动系列。第二个相关项目的目标是为学院创造一个多元化的角落。这些合作努力帮助图书馆进一步履行其使命,成为学院内的一个包容性实体,并为图书馆提供了更大的规划范围。
