Inspiring Inclusive Excellence Reading List

In 2020 the University of Toronto Scarborough (UTSC) launched the Inspiring Inclusive Excellence strategic plan.  

Inspiring inclusive excellence means embracing and promoting the enriching contributions that come from the diverse backgrounds, ways of knowing, ideas, perspectives, and experiences represented in our community. 

To support further research of contributions that come from diverse backgrounds and ways of knowing, UTSC librarians and staff have assembled an ongoing list of resources under an expanding list of categories. 

When searching for further specialized readings in your area of interest, contact UTSC liaison librarians to help search and locate relevant sources to inspire inclusive excellence.
