Ana Ndumu, "Borders and Belonging: Critical Examinations of Library Approaches toward Immigrants"
English | ISBN: 163400082X | 2021 | 318 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Borders and Belonging explores the role of libraries as both places of belonging as well as instruments of exclusion, xenophobia and assimilation. For over a century, North American libraries have liaised between immigrant communities and mainstream society by providing important sociocultural and educational services.
