Columbia, South Carolina

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion are passions for Dr. Clayton A. Copeland. They are factors with which she has extensive lived experience – as a librarian, as a faculty member teaching Library and Information Science students, and as a person with differing abilities following her own premature birth. Dr. Copeland is Director of the SLIS Laboratory for Leadership in the Equity of Access and Diversity (LLEAD) and helps manage the Linda Lucas Walling Collection for Universal Access. Her research, teaching, and service focus on equity of access to information for underserved populations, Universal Design, Universal Access. Dr. Copeland’s dissertation research was among the first to explore the lived experiences of library patrons with disabilities. Offering comparative analyses of patrons who are typically-able and those who are differently-abled, her research and work explore equity, access, and inclusion as it pertains to the physical environment, the virtual environment, and interactions among library patrons and staff.
