Abstract: This document is a guide through the process of setting up and running a book study about diversity, equity, inclusion, and belongingness, to better create an inclusive and equitable environment where everyone feels they belong. Books on these topics provide tools and context to navigate race, age, physical ability, religion, and sexual orientation. In this context, the topics relate to the workplace and education. The books that are read should teach respect, compassion, and dignity for others. Many books are available in multiple formats, including traditional hard- or paperback books, e-books (e.g., Kindle), and audiobooks. [The Office of Teaching and Learning's Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) Team at the Kentucky Department of Education prepared this guide with assistance from the Region 5 Comprehensive Center.]
