[aisle] Resources for Diversity Audit

Tue May 11 12:30:02 CDT 2021

This would make an excellent session topic for the AISLE conference in Nov.  Here is the link to RFP https://forms.gle/oGX5V3u8Erab779M8
Deadlines have been extended to June 15th.  You don’t have to have all the answers,  even knowledge of what is working or not would be of interest to others.
