Libraries, Immigrants, and the American Experience by Plummer A. Jones PDF Summary

Book Description: This is the first full-length, national scope treatment of American public library service to immigrants, which was a central and continuing mission from 1876, when the American Library Association (ALA) was founded, through 1948, when the ALA Committee on Work with the Foreign Born (ALA CWFB) disbanded. It focuses on the leaders of the movement who provided immigrants with information, personal attention, and the guidance they needed to adjust, survive, and thrive.
