- Student Diversity Inspires Special "Our Languages" Collection Waitman, Kay Student Diversity School Libraries Native Language Books Multilingualism Partnerships in Education School Business Relationship Safety Trauma Furniture Educational Facilities Standards Psychological Patterns School Districts Elementary School Students Eskimos Teaching Experience This article discusses how the author, Kay Waitman, provided a safe and welcome environment in her school's library, by creating an "Our Languages" collection of books in the first languages of all her students, from Espanõl to Hmong to Yup'ik Eskimo. She also partnered with a local furniture store, Scan Home, to create a large, cozy seating area in the library and a safe place for students to visit when they feel sad, angry, or other feelings that often accompany transitions to new settings or trauma. The different ways her students utilize and value the books within the "Our Languages" collection reflect the Include Shared Foundation from the American Association of School Librarians (AASL) Standards across many Domains. Her students value balanced perspectives that are enhanced by the school library's variety of resources.
