CST Zoom Link: https://emporiastate.zoom.us/j/98964167865 Working with information seekers from nontraditional populations is a challenge for many public service librarians. In this webinar, we will discuss how to turn these challenges into opportunities to better engage marginalized library users, teach critical information literacy skills, and promote cultural competencies—all in the context of traditional library instruction and reference desk interviews. Dr. Trembach has his Ph.D. from School of Library and Information Science, University of South Carolina. He joined the SLIM faculty as assistant professor in fall 2020.
