chrisbourg-wordpress-com-4759		The unbearable whiteness of librarianship | Feral Librarian			.html	application/xhtml+xml	5365	443	71	The teacher article notes that a lack of salary and prestige is further "exacerbated in minority communities, especially when the student in question is the first in their family to attend college." What we can expect in terms of recruitment from those least likely to join librarianship when they take a look at the requirements for academic librarian positions that "prefer" a subject master's degree (let's not even mention the ones that one PhDs or professional degrees)? All we can do is grow our own as best we can (people working in libraries already have a certain level of interest) and expect all librarians to be welcoming and encouraging–while I've seen people say that seeing someone who looks like you is important to some folks considering a future career, experiences matter too and that is something the people who have self-selected themselves to be in librarianship can control, unlike their own personal demographics.	./cache/chrisbourg-wordpress-com-4759.html	./txt/chrisbourg-wordpress-com-4759.txt
