Between the World and Me by Social justice is defined as "... promoting a just society by challenging injustice and valuing diversity." It exists when "all people share a common humanity and therefore have a right to equitable treatment, support for their human rights, and a fair allocation of community resources." In conditions of social justice, people are "not be discriminated against, nor their welfare and well-being constrained or prejudiced on the basis of gender, sexuality, religion, political affiliations, age, race, belief, disability, location, social class, socioeconomic circumstances, or other characteristic of background or group membership."

Social responsibility, in general, takes social justice into a realm of action. Libraries of all types are taking a more active part in their communities, "serving as sites for free public Internet access, digital literacy and digital inclusion classes, gateways to education and employment as well as social services and e-government, and even emergency response roles." "Collaborating with other service agencies and organizations to meet specific community needs allows libraries and other cultural heritage institutions to use the unique skills of their staff, their community position, and their access to information resources to help address community problems that might otherwise go untended."
