Abstract

Abstract This study is a diversity audit of play script orders during FY2011 and FY2019 to determine if University of California, Irvine Libraries’ orders had shifted to reflect the increased demand for diverse playwrights. The audit also examined the larger publishing landscape for play scripts during these specific years to determine if plays by diverse playwrights were being published and available for acquisition. The audit demonstrates that both the play script orders and publishing landscape have greatly diversified; however, further work needs to be done to continue diversifying local acquisitions with what is being published, so that library collections of play scripts reflect the university and country’s demographics.

谁的剧本正在出版？与更广阔的出版世界对话——对一家图书馆馆藏的多样性审计

摘要本研究对2011财年和2019财年的剧本订单进行了多样性审计，以确定加州大学欧文分校图书馆的订单是否发生了变化，以反映对多样化剧作家需求的增加。审计还检查了这些特定年份剧本的更大出版格局，以确定不同剧作家的剧本是否正在出版并可供收购。审计表明，剧本订单和出版格局都大大多样化；然而，还需要做更多的工作，继续通过出版的内容使当地的收购多样化，以便图书馆收集的剧本反映出大学和国家的人口统计数据。
