More about the Outreach Round Table: The ORT provides a framework for<br>
information sharing, continuing education and moral support for library workers<br>
currently providing outreach services; and to offer opportunities for<br>
networking and encouragement to libraries wishing to expand or develop library<br>
outreach services. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to library<br>
service to people of all ages who can no longer use a library facility due to<br>
either a physical or mental impairment, people who live in rural or remote area<br>
without a library, non-English speakers, the incarcerated, the homeless, and<br>
low-literacy adults.<br>

Thank you for your time and consideration.<br>
