Two positive exceptions since this review come from McElroy and Bridges (2018), who situate access and discoverability for scholarly communications in broader contexts of multilingualism and English-language hegemony, and from Espinoza and Solis (in press), who interrogate linguistic diversity in libraries with reference to linguistic imperialism and the historical factors that have led to English's dominance. While by no means exhaustive, the following actions suggest broad ideas and specific examples of ways to counter neoliberalism and exclusionary language ideologies and work towards better linguistic access, equity, diversity, and inclusion. ./cache/www-inthelibrarywiththeleadpipe-org-432.html ./txt/www-inthelibrarywiththeleadpipe-org-432.txt
