Hello to the list-

My name is Candace Thomas, and I work as a reference librarian at Gail
Borden Public Library in Elgin, IL.  I am returning to the library world
after several years of working in areas related to social justice and
service learning.  I was pleased to see this list created as it is
important to offer a forum to address the relationships among poverty,
race and literacy.  I am glad to see a co-moderator is from ALA, as I
think libraries need to be active on the "front lines" in providing
support for literacy and access to information and resources for every
person in our communities.  I look forward to following the discussions.
