Inclusive Citations

This guide will discuss Inclusive Citations and provide resources to find inclusive scholarly papers as well as discuss best practices for including inclusive citations in their own research.

Inclusive Citations

Welcome to the UT Inclusive Citation Library Guide!  The compiled available sources and best practices will help you in your search for diverse and inclusive scholars and research so that students, faculty, and staff can include more underrepresented voices in their research citations.

What is inclusive citation?

The practice of citing creative and academic research from those of minority backgrounds. This practice is important to stop the continued action of spearheading white, straight men as the leaders of all topics of research, even those where the best knowledge may come from minority groups.

This guide includes physical and electronic books, databases, journals, and other UTK LibGuides that are freely available to UT students, faculty and staff. 

Use the sources provided and others as an introduction to finding scholars and research from voices that are underrepresented in our current academic research climate.
