Need for programCritical shortage of Spanish speaking librarians
The need for qualified and culturally sensitive bilinguallibrarians in Hispanic service areas is acute.
The number of Latino students enrolled in MLIS programs verysmall.
Libraries and students in Hispanic communities need oneanother: the library to develop effective staffing, and thestudents to find means of enhancing their future prospectsand improving conditions in their communities.
