This is a recording of the online launch event of the Diversifying Toolkit for Staff, created by the ASL team.
The Academic Support Librarians' EDI group have been compiling resources to create a toolkit which we hope will support staff in exploring how to include more diverse resources in their teaching. You can view the toolkit here: https://edinburgh-uk.libguides.com/diversifyingtoolkit
