states that children from dominant social groups must see other lives. Meanwhile, she confessed that she is practicing censorship as well by placing I am Jazz, a story of a transgender child in the professional collection. For another transgender topic book Red, she said that she added “transgender” as a subject heading for her school’s OPAC to display. To take a broader stand, Garrison revealed the gaps in LGBTQAI+ children’s cataloging and classification and BTQAI+ children’s collection development. She hopes that her dissertation research will encourage elementary school librarians to “think deeply about their cataloging and classification tools and practices” and “be transparent about biases and choices” so as to “make the library a safe, inclusive place for LGBTQAI + students” and “create space for conversation and understanding.” All slides of these talks have been made available at the ALA Connect site at: https:// connect.ala.org/alcts/viewdocument/slides-available-for-ala-annual-201?CommunityKey= 9f768291-e39f-4bf9-8cf4-3e76529378d2&tab=librarydocuments
