Brittani Sterling is the Social Sciences and Interdisciplinary Studies librarian at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. She is the liaison to the areas of sociology, anthropology, interdisciplinary studies, and political science and is the director of the Rebel + Workshops series - a co-curricular set of instructional opportunities for students across the curriculum to cultivate the critical skills necessary to their academic journeys and future careers. In addition to her teaching duties, Brittani’s research agenda includes the sociology of librarianship, building equitable collections, and exploring the intersection of organizational culture and the lived experiences of librarians of color.

She is excited to be a part of the current ARL Leadership Career Development Program cohort and since the last TILC has been busy publishing like crazy! Her ACRL contributed paper “Conference critique: An analysis of equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) planning” has changed the way conference planners across the country evaluate proposals that center EDI content, and she is currently serving as primary investigator of the project “We’re still here at mid-career: The retention of academic librarians of color and our lived experiences,” winner of an American Library Association Diversity Grant. She and her tenure track colleagues have also been preaching the importance of diverse and inclusive cohorts with their publication, Working Towards Tenure Together: Creating an Intersectional Peer Supported Cohort Model. Most recently she was published in the WeHere Publication: UpRoot for her article : Can't We All Just Cathect Along? which dissect the visions of bell hooks and her admonition that we always have worth and not just in our work. You can follow her shenanigans and powerful insights over on Instagram at @professor.ish, where she pens encouragement, extols the virtues of #Wearapy, and challenges you to show up for yourself no matter what in work, family, or any other situation you might find yourself in.

Brittani's TILC keynote address is entitled We Need To Talk About Creative Community Engagement! Brittani has been co-creating some innovative and impactful community outreach over the past several years that has had measurable impacts on the local and campus community's perceptions of, and interactions with, the UNLV Libraries. By breaking down the successful elements of these unique community focused instruction sessions, she is looking forward to inspiring you to create outreach of your very own! Though we may primarily think of ourselves in our roles in classrooms, research consultations, and as using our expertise within reference desk interactions, we also have the power to share our skills in ways that build community far beyond any one shot. We can also develop our research agendas, drill down our teaching philosophies, and maximize our perspectives as practitioners to influence our institutions for good! Please join Brittani for an engaging, thought provoking keynote, where you'll put on your thinking caps and leave with some ideas to take back to your own institutions and communities!
