| contents | "See Yourself at the Library": Celebrating the Common Threads while Respecting the Differences Bias-Elliott, Cathy Libraries Cultural Differences Library Services Outreach Programs Today's communities are diverse in composition, not only ethnically, but also in matters of age, sexual preference, physical and mental ability. However, as different as we all are, there are certain common threads that bind us all together. If libraries are to thrive and serve the whole community, they must respect the differences, but at the same time, celebrate those things we all have in common. The library should be a place where the community can gather. Patrons should feel that they are a part of the library and have a stake in its future. To this end, I have created the "See Yourself at the Library" promotion. |
