Creating a Person-Centered Library will help librarians build or contribute to library services that will best address patrons' psychosocial needs. The authors, experienced in both library and social work, begin by providing an overview of patrons' psychosocial needs, structural and societal reasons for the shift in these needs, and how these changes impact libraries and library staff. Chapters focus on best practices for libraries providing person-centered services and share lessons learned, including information about special considerations for certain patron populations that might be served by individual libraries. The book concludes with information about how library organizations can support public library staff. Librarians and library students who are concerned about both patrons and library staff will find the practical advice in this book invaluable"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Libraries and community $z United States. 650 0 $a Public services (Libraries) $z United States. 650 0 $a Social service $z United States. 650 6 $a Relations bibliotheÌque-collectiviteÌ $z EÌtats-Unis. 650 6 $a BibliotheÌques $x Services aux usagers $z EÌtats-Unis. 650 7 $a LANGUAGE ARTS & DISCIPLINES / Library & Information Science / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Social Work. $2 bisacsh 700 1 $a Johnson, Sarah C., $e author. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Wahler, Elizabeth A. $t Creating a person-centered library $d New York : Bloomsbury Libraries Unlimited, 2023 $z 9798216171140 $w (DLC) 2023026527 941 $a 1 952 $l IAOX771 $d 20240224010404.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=672A17E8D2E211EE84426D1826ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
