Product Description
As the nation's Latino population continues to expand, so do school and public libraries' needs for information on how to serve them. Based on current research and numerous workshops conducted by the authors in libraries across the country, Serving Latino Communities fills a void in the professional literature. It provides a systematic, step-by-step process to help librarians get support for increased service from key decision-makers; understand the needs of their library's Latino community; develop successful programs and services; obtain external funding for improved services; prepare staff to work more effectively with Latinos; establish partnerships with relevant external agencies and organizations; improve collection development; and do effective outreach and public relations. Includes sample handouts and flyers; a resource directory with selected publications, organizations, and Internet resources; and an index.
