<P>This book is the winner of the BCALA 2025 Literary Award for Outstanding Contribution to Publishing. In designing this edition, the editors felt that <Q>this work should be a reference tool related to the various aspects of African Americans in librarianship and their work in libraries</Q>. The first edition covered issues faced by black library professionals in the various fields of librarianship; organizations formed; black library collections and books; resources and other areas of progress. The second edition, published twenty-three years later, highlighted more current events in Black librarianship: early and contemporary library organizations, vital issues, African American resources, discussions on and about librarianship, a focus on health librarianship, and information resources and education. It has now been another twenty-two years since the last edition and time to reflect on <Q>various aspects of African Americans</Q> in our profession as well as the advancements over the past two and a half decades and to review those issues African Americans still face and how modern technological advancements have impacted our profession and the lives of Black librarians. Coverage includes: Pioneers and Landmark Episodes; A Chronology of Events in Black Librarianship; African American Forerunners in Librarianship; Modern Day Black Library Organizations; Vital Issues in Black Librarianship; Library Service to Our Communities; Library Technology and Black Librarianship; Pearls from Our Retirees; Issues in Diversity, Inclusion and Multiculturalism; African Library Resources and Education; Banned Books; and Significant Books and Periodicals for Black Collections.</P>
