When I think about diversity, this research paper process is one of the aspects of diversity that I reference; understanding diverse or differing points of view to be better able to understand the sides of an issue, determining what fits with my belief system and being able to articulate my conclusion. While this is one of the things I think about when I hear the word diversity, you may think of something entirely different. Maybe you think of racial diversity or cultural diversity. Maybe you think of religious diversity or geographic diversity. Maybe you think celebrating diversity is a great thing, maybe not. That is the magic of diversity, its meaning is different for each of us. Its meaning is diverse. As you will read within the pages of this issue of WORDS, the library is the ideal place to explore your definition of diversity through our programs, our books, our databases and discussions with others. Who knows, maybe through exploration or “research,” your meaning of diversity will expand.
