Veterans are returning to college in increasing numbers and campuses and libraries have been challenged in addressing and providing appropriate services and assistance.
The ALAO Diversity Committee Spring Workshop “Serving Our Veterans: A Call to Action” focuses on identifying and understanding the characteristics and needs of student veterans and how libraries can develop and provide services and research assistance for them.
Join us on June 5, 2015 to hear from the Ohio Department of Veterans’ Services, learn how the Columbus State Military & Veterans Services Department serves students, listen to three unique presentations from Ohio librarians who have implemented teaching and service programs for veterans and finally, gain some additional tips and ideas from a roundtable discussion among participants.
Lunch is included; seating is limited.
