Abstract

The mission of Jesuit education to promote social justice is clear. Yet, when we look at the work of our Jesuit institutions’ academic libraries do we see a clear directive to support social justice initiatives? Our research explores with a critical lens the impact academic libraries have, on their own and in collaboration with campus partners, in promoting social justice at their institutions.
