| Summary: | "Hughes-Hassell provides models and tools for collection managers that will enable library staff who serve youth to put in place, demonstrate, and create learner-centered collections that are inclusive and provide equitable access to all youth"-- Library materials must be selected to support formal and informal learning environments that facilitate the development of multiple literacies. Unfortunately, diversity initiatives often focus on multiculturalism, rather than the economic, political, and social conditions of people of color, the LGBTQ community, disabled people, or immigrants. Hughes-Hassell provides models to help collection managers and library staff to develop a collection providing equitable access to all youth. A complex goal, but one which must be addressed. -- |
