For the purposes of this report the phrase "cultural diversity" refers to that which pertains to the condition, expressions and experiences of four historically under-represented groups Under federal regulations these are: Asian Americans/Pacific Islander, Latinos, African Americans, and Native Americans/American Indians. In 1988, the Chicano/Latino Consortium of the University of California issued their Chicanos/Latinos in the University of California A Status Report. In 1989 the Advisory Committee on Asian American Affairs submitted Asian Americans at Berkeley. In 1990, the Task Force on Black Student Eligibility published Making the Future Different These reports provided the incentive for the University to sponsor the All-University Faculty Conference on Graduate Student and Faculty Affirmative Action (1990). As part of this process the President of the University issued several directives concerning diversity within the University of California. It was at this juncture that the President of LAUC called for the creation of the Ad Hoc Committee on LAUC Regional Workshops on Cultural Diversity in Libraries. While the scope of the term "diversity" continues to be debated within the University, the Committee used the definition outlined in the 1990 All-University Conference which targets "Asian Americans, Black/African Americans, Chicanos, Latinos, Native Americans, and others ... who, for decades, have been characterized as a 'minority' constituency..." This scope provides an opportunity to develop models and strategies which will be applicable to other under-represented groups.
