TAA CDEI Committee to launch survey on DEI-related publishing issues

TAA’s CDEI Committee is launching a survey in late April to gather information on several DEI-related publishing issues in nine categories, including reviewer-related issues, editor competencies, positive representation, case studies, understanding bias, incorporating triggering sensitivities, inclusive scholarship, and language.

The goal of the survey is to learn more about how TAA can support its members and their publisher’s efforts to incorporate DEI topics in their writing.

The CDEI Committee will also be hosting the April 26 TAA Conversation Circle discussion on Diversity, equity, inclusion in textbooks and academic materials. No need to sign up. Watch for emails containing the link to the join the session as it gets closer, or visit the Conversation Circle page.
