Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

The University Libraries values and promotes diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Through our expertise, services, and collections, we aim to serve all members of the Carnegie Mellon University community with empathy and respect.

LEAD AwardOur commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion strengthens our organization and enriches our learning environment, creating the conditions for innovation to flourish. Our provision of equitable access to information, spaces, and opportunity enhances the quality of the student experience and provides our scholars with a competitive edge. We strive to incorporate and appreciate the diversity of our institution in exhibits, events, collections and our workforce. We strive for an ongoing practice of inclusion to build a sense of belonging for all members and help us all learn how to celebrate our differences.

Our roles as information providers, skill builders, and hubs of campus activities places us squarely at the center of campus and academic life and requires that we attend to diversity, equity and inclusion – and find opportunities to infuse this where it is lacking – in areas under our purview.
