In the wake of recent bomb threats made against several Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), ALA and the Association of College and Research Libraries have issued a joint statement in solidarity with HBCU faculty, students, and staff. In part, the statement reads: “In particular we voice our support for those whose campuses have recently received bomb threats. We especially wish to reach out to our library colleagues whose libraries anchor these important institutions. We lament that racism and the threat of violence continue to plague our colleagues in higher education.” ALA and ACRL also support the Association of Research Libraries’ statement.
