beliefs, language, culture, nationality, age, (dis)ability status, and religion.</p> <p><strong>Equity:</strong> takes differences into account to ensure fair, unbiased, and impartial processes and outcomes, and equal opportunity.</p> <p><strong>Inclusion:</strong> all individuals are treated fairly and respectfully; are intentionally valued for their distinctive skills, experiences, and perspectives; have equal access to resources and opportunities; feel a sense of belonging; and can contribute fully to the association’s success.</p> <p><em>Adapted from ALA ODLOS Glossary of Terms
