Resources

The following resources and literature were all cited throughout Libraries as Partners’ narrative when applying for IMLS funding support and were key to the project’s development. Many resources highlight the services that libraries have provided their communities during a range of emergencies including the opioid crisis, natural disasters, COVID-19, gun violence, and others. Resources on Team Cognitive Work Analysis (TeamCWA) and Targeted Universalism contributed to the inclusion of these methods in the project’s work plan. Other resources describe the importance of partnership from a variety of organizations such as the United Nations and World Health Organization, while others provide recent library statistics and information on social vulnerability and the importance of libraries to underserved and marginalized groups.

Explore these resources to further understand Libraries as Partners’ justification and the frameworks of this project.
