Social Exclusion--Framework for Change

Social exclusion framework provides a way for looking at social justice in libraries.
The author, John Gehner, a member of the Social Responsibilities Round Table
of the American Library Association on this site Hunger, Homelessness & Poverty Task Force lists a lot of resources for libraries and librarians to help effect change in how they respond to poverty in the community.

I read about this on Kathleen de la Peña McCook's excellent blog. She writes about libraries and community issues and never fails to get it right. IMHO.

Sometimes, however, it's easier said than done.
