Keeping Multiculturalism on the Agenda: Strategies for Action in Public Libraries

Abstract

Discusses nine areas for action in relation to improving services in libraries to ethnic minorities and heightening multiculturalism in libraries. Reviews the literature relating to these areas and considers some of the issues involved in implementing changes. Looks at some of the areas in which race relations can be improved through better organization of the various stock arrangements of reading matter and the employment of local ethnic/black librarian staff in front line positions.
