A systematic review of IDEAs in librarianship: Working together move toward greater ideas

Dramatic demographic shifts that is now more racially and ethnically diverse, as well as the abundance of inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility (IDEA) topics, are discussed in the literature and found within conference themes and professional organizations. This systematic review demonstrates the status and identifies the main common views, changes, and notable gaps in the research on IDEA, and social justice; anti-racism; and cultural humility presented and interconnected, particularly in the LIS literature from 2018 to 2022. A framework for LIS professionals was developed to provide a broad LIS vision regarding IDEA-related aspects. This review extends previous work by providing a more comprehensive treatment of relevant terms and presenting additional elements not previously examined. We hope that this review will motivate the LIS community specific to the United States to address issues of systemic/structural racism and to work together toward ensuring more IDEA in all communities, especially underrepresented and marginalized groups.
