While there has been a steady increase in scholarship about why librarians of color leave the profession, there has been very little written about those who choose to stay. This research will ask librarians currently working in academic libraries in the United States “what factors have influenced you to stay in the LIS field thus far?” This poster will provide preliminary results from this study, invite academic librarians to share their own experiences, outline recommendations for library leaders, and offer solutions to improve the working conditions of academic librarians of color.
