[Michlib-l] LM's Library Science Collection - Services to Underserved Community Members

[Reish, Karren (MDE)]

Our communities are diverse and reaching out to those who don't use or have difficulty using library services can be difficult. What materials and services are helpful for various communities? What outreach will be most effective? LM is highlighting topical Library Science titles from our collection in occasional emails. Here are selected titles on serving underserved communities purchased recently. You can search MeLCat for LM titles and you can also check our New Library Science Collection titles at https://www.michigan.gov/libraryofmichigan/libraries/libsci<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.michigan.gov%2Flibraryofmichigan%2Flibraries%2Flibsci&data=05%7C01%7CReishK%40michigan.gov%7Cfac404271eaa484477b508dadd452963%7Cd5fb7087377742ad966a892ef47225d1%7C0%7C0%7C638065586356348120%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=YBmfhLPQYzGk0Zr8B28F7Hx8ErYFRRdVKBDZMaoJjDA%3D&reserved=0>.
