The book aims to highlight case studies on the role of the academic/research library workers in supporting ethnic studies programs (e.g. African American/Black Studies, Asian/Pacific American Studies, Native American/Indigenous Studies, Jewish Studies, Middle Eastern American Studies, Chicanx/Latinx Studies) through a variety of approaches such as library instruction, outreach, liaison engagement, collections strategy, curriculum support, special collections, digital scholarship/humanities, data sciences, scholarly communications and other special projects. In addition, case studies focusing on disciplinary areas in the humanities and social sciences with an emphasis on ethnic studies are welcomed (e.g. African American History, Asian American Literature, History of Native American Art, US Latinx Literature, etc.). The sections of the book are tentatively divided as the following: *Section I: Instruction, Liaison Engagement and Outreach* **Section II: Collections Strategy Programs* * (including technical services and special collections/archival work) **Section III: Digital Scholarship/Humanities Work* * (including data-related collection work/projects) *Section IV: Collaborations on Special Projects and Community Partnerships* Proposals should contain a tentative title, an identified section (either 2 or 3), and an abstract proposal: Up to 500 words in MS Word describing what you would intend to submit for this book. Collaborations with teaching faculty are strongly encouraged. We also welcome proposals from library workers/archivists who may work in public/special libraries/research centers that support ethnic studies curriculum, research or programs. *Proposals due: <New Date> *October 19, 2020* and Notifications sent by: October 30, 2020 * *Proposals will be reviewed by co-editors.
