Vander Pemberton, Amanda Ali, Karim Bartlett, Sarah Clair, Jillian Crombleholme, Sydney Dee, Alison DePierro, Kristy Greenwood, Timothy Lobzun, Meagan Petersen, Cassandra Saunders, Sabrina Redwing Tarzi, Mary Ward, Kristyn Zip, Stacey Foreign Countries Social Justice Information Science Education Library Science Masters Programs Social Change Critical Thinking Thinking Skills Teaching Methods Course Content Scaffolding (Teaching Technique) Graduate Students Curriculum Development This paper was produced as a collaborative project by a Progressive Librarianship class at an ALA-accredited Masters of Library and Information Science (MLIS) program located in Canada. Recent research in LIS has identified a need for issues of social justice to be discussed more prominently in LIS education. From a uniquely student perspective, the authors suggest how MLIS programs can incorporate social justice as a key component in LIS education. Specifically, they encourage pedagogy that supports critical thinking on issues of social justice and provides scaffolding for progressive change for the common good within a library context. This includes where social justice should appear in the LIS curriculum, who should teach about social justice, what topics are currently of relevance, and suggestions on key strategies for progressive change that can be taught in LIS education.
