Libraries Serving Disadvantaged Persons Section
ScopeThe Section for Libraries Serving Disadvantaged Persons is concerned with library and information services to all those groups within the community who for whatever reason are unable to make use of conventional library services. These groups include people in hospitals and prisons, the elderly in nursing homes and care facilities, the house-bound, the deaf and the physically and developmentally disabled. This Section provides an international forum for the discussion of ideas, sharing of experiences and development of projects designed to promote and improve the effectiveness of library and information services to such groups, and the promotion of national and international cooperation at all levels.
