One week remains until the deadline for applications for the ARL Initiative to Recruit a Diverse Workforce (IRDW). The IRDW programs a generous suite of financial and developmental benefits to students from traditionally underrepresented racial and ethnic groups in support of MLIS education. The goal of the program is to recruit diverse students into careers in research libraries and archives. More information about the program can be found on the ARL website:
