ALA Office for Literacy and Outreach Services

I just returned from the Association of Bookmobile and Outreach Services (ABOS) Conference. While I was there I had the opportunity to meet Satia Orange, who is the Director of the ALA Office for Literacy and Outreach Services (OLOS). Ms. Orange spoke about the many resources that OLOS provides to those serving special populations. She also handed out toolkit sheets that I'll be sure to bring to the meeting on Wednesday. The toolkits are all available online as well. The site also includes links to ALA groups such as GLBTRT, ABOS, CALA, and REFORMA. Here is a link to the OLOS site:
