When working in libraries, you will have the opportunity to work with patrons from all walks of life, who have a wide variety of information needs.  Panelists will detail the special populations with whom they work on a regular basis.

Tess Tobin will talk about her work with ALA's REFORMA and the Ethnic and Multicultural Information Exchange Roundtable (EMIERT); Nick Higgins will talk about his job as NYPL's Correctional Services Librarian; and Meg Koloya and Dan Weiss will talk about their outreach to families dealing with autism.
