Hello, all!
The ACRL/RBMS Guidelines Regarding Security and Theft in Special Collections are in the process of being revised. These guidelines are used by special collections and archival repositories across the United States and currently encourage punitive action to safe-guard collections, spaces, & staff.
Please considering reading the Abolition in Special Collections's statement to the Rare Books and Manuscripts Section (RBMS) Executive Committee and sign to support a revision that will make special collections reading rooms into safer spaces for all: https://bit.ly/AbSCstatementtoRBMS
