Community Helpers at Work

Experts in the field of information science, librarians do much more than manage the checking out of books. This guidebook explores how librarians create welcoming, inclusive hubs in our communities and draw on their extensive training to help patrons solve problems, answer questions, and enjoy the world of books and reading. This book features descriptions of the tech tools that librarians use and new technologies available to community members in many libraries, including 3D printers and exciting software.
