Works of Arabic Literature that represents most of the Arab countries and that is available in English are being read and discussed. This group started in October 1996. The goal of this project is to talk to students about racism through readings and personal experiences and to explore various ways to deal with it. Explanations and some of the handouts are translated to Spanish and will be available in other languages if needed. Groups for training should not exceed 8 people.
Individual training is available also.
However, we found that these presentations are not as effective as visiting the Library. If you have access to the Internet at your site, training on the library computer system can be provided. This calendar has been published since May 96 and distributed with other library events and program flyers through the library and volunteers at their communities. The Collection has been expanded to include print and non-print formats on topics such as parenting, study skills, home improvement, health and wellness, careers, self improvement. Library materials and handouts are taken to locations for display to advertise Library collection and services.
