“Chou’s and Pho’s book 'Pushing the Margins: Women of Color and Intersectionality in LIS' is an extremely important contribution to our discipline, bringing critical thought and knowledge for consideration at a time when a focus on diversity and inclusion is greatly needed,” said award chair Dolores Fidishun, head librarian at Penn State-Abington. “Their emphasis on intersectionality will help all of us in LIS grow as we learn about ways in which multiple social and cultural identities impact individual experience. It is a must read for any librarian!”
