SUMMARY:Webinar: Improving Publishing's Diversity Problem\, One Mentorship\, Internship\, and Fellowship at a Time
DESCRIPTION:Many publishing companies have been looking for ways to improve diversity within the industry. Our September webinar featured a panel of three publishing professionals discussing how they have created internships\, mentorships\, or fellowships for people from marginalized communities who are looking to enter the industry. Our panelists were Helen Maimaris\, the managing editor of F(r)iction and the COO of its parent nonprofit\, Brink Literacy Project; Yasmin A. McClinton\, freelance editor at Tessera Editorial; and Sarah Park Dahlen\, Associate Professor in the MLIS Program at St. Catherine University and the community liaison for the Mirrors and Windows Fellowship. They spoke about how their organizations started\, challenges they’ve met along the way\, and the impact they hope to make on the industry as a whole. They also provided ideas for how companies can connect with more diverse applicants for their open positions. \nRemember that the process for accessing recordings has changed.
