Decolonising The Library

Whilst there has been greater attention and focus on the notion of decolonising for examples in museums or the arts most of the energy has concentrated upon the inclusion of material from the Global South. In Universities there have been efforts to broaden the literature used on reading lists and the inclusion of other world perspectives in lessons. However, as this episode discusses more can be done to make Universities more accessible for bilingual and International students. This episode looks not only at decolonising the reading list but why students should not be stigmatised for failing to conform to western models of learning and language styles. Guests Kaye Towlson, Librarian at De Montfort University and Sumaya Loonat, Senior International Lecturer in Law.
