New report out now - SCONUL Equality, Diversity and Inclusion statistics report: Ethnicity of our workforce - Wed, 25 Oct 2023

We are delighted to be able to release our EDI Statistics report: https://www.sconul.ac.uk/sites/default/files/documents/SCONUL_Equality_Diversity_and_Inclusion_statistics_report-Ethnicity_of_our_workforce.pdf

 

Thank you to everyone who was able to provide us with data that gives an insight into the ethnic make-up of our sector and SCONUL's next steps to continue progress in increasing diversity, particularly in more senior roles.

 

This work started a number of years ago, with a report commissioned to look at the experiences of Global Ethnic Majority staff in our member libraries (formerly titled BAME) by Dr Ishaq and Dr Hussain. This report is still available here: https://www.sconul.ac.uk/sites/default/files/documents/BAME%20staff%20experiences%20of%20academic%20and%20research%20libraries_0.pdf 

 

And it was continued by the report into making the EDI statistics a reality, also available here: https://www.sconul.ac.uk/sites/default/files/documents/SCONUL_Equality_diversity_and_inclusion_benchmarking_data_project_report.pdf
