Abstract
In 2021, the Visible Minority Librarians of Canada (ViMLoC) Network conducted its second comprehensive survey on visible minority librarians working in Canadian institutions. As a followup to the first 2013 survey, ViMLoC examined changes in the library landscape with regards to visible minority librarians in various librarian positions. Data were collected from January to March 2021 on visible minority librarians’ demographics, education, and employment situations. The survey was administered and distributed using Qualtrics in English and French. <p><p> The user guide and results summary in this dataset presents aggregated data for 162 visible minority librarians from the English survey (138) and the French survey (24). Survey results will help ViMLoC identify the needs of visible minority librarians and propose projects to empower them in their current positions or their future career development. The data can be also useful to library administrators, librarians, and researchers working on multicultural issues, diversity, recruitment and retention, leadership, library management, and other related areas.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
