In the Library with the Lead Pipe

Librarians and library school students have a lot to gain by sharing their skills with groups outside of the library, such as community organizations, social justice groups, and non-profits. By building coalitions and offering support to different groups, librarians help lend their particular expertise while simultaneously advancing the roles of these groups. These projects help increase the visibility of librarians and libraries. When we leave the library and enter the wild, we build our professional and personal relevance and bridge connections with socially and politically minded groups.

While this training may be useful to librarians in a variety of libraries, this site is intended primarily for librarians and other library staff working in Arizona's small and rural public libraries. CDT is sponsored by the Arizona State Library, Archives and Public Records.
