¡Hola amigos!
Since we are in the business of books, I wanted to share some titles that are worth checking out. Some of these I have skimmed through and others I have serendipitously come across and adapted ideas from. Many of these books are worth trying to request through Interlibrary Loan if you have access to this valuable service. You can try searching WorldCat to find libraries that own copies of these titles.
Here is a simple bibliography that I have created to share with all of my library friends. I believe that this list encompasses a range of titles to assist the novice rural library paraprofessional that has assumed the task of expanding services to Latinos, to the more experienced outreach coordinator that can always learn new ideas by exploring more on the subject.
