Union Public Library
The project helped the library to expand their collection to more accurately reflect the people within their community.
Union Public Library’s project gathered and documented immigrant stories within their community. They developed a preliminary film containing these stories, with Spanish subtitles, which showcase attendees had the opportunity to preview. According to Debbie Walter and Barbara LaMort, their community history project helped the library to expand their collection to more accurately reflect the people within their community. Through participation in the program, they learned the value of listening to constituents and developing programs to meet their needs.
