We are the Tucson, Arizona Chapter of REFORMA, one of 20 active chapters of the National Association to Promote Library & Information Services to Latinos and the Spanish Speaking.
Our Mission
REFORMA is committed to the improvement of the full spectrum of library and information services for the more than 40 million Spanish-speaking and Latino people in the U.S.
Our History
Established in 1971, REFORMA promotes the development of library collections to include Spanish language and Latino-oriented materials; the recruitment of more bilingual and bi-cultural professionals and support staff; the development of library services and programs which meet the needs of the Spanish-speaking and Latino communities; the establishment of a national network among individuals who share our goals; the education of the U.S. Latino population in regards to the availability and types of library services; and lobbying efforts to preserve existing library resource centers serving the interests of Latinos.
Dr. Arnulfo D. Trejo (1922-2002) “Father of Latino Librarianship”
