Statement on Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion

Library & Learning Services (L&LS) at Marymount University welcomes and values all members of its community.  Diversity and inclusion are sources of strength that inspire intellectual curiosity and L&LS nurtures lifelong learning habits that allow our community to tackle the challenges of the world.  L&LS is committed to providing all of its services in an inclusive atmosphere of mutual respect, cooperation, and civility for all, embracing each person’s race, ethnicity, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, veteran status, age, ability, class, national origin, and immigration status.  The collections reflect, serve, and are equitably accessible to our community, and require intentional actions to address historic and ongoing exclusions.
