Abstract
Our schools and school libraries are becoming more diverse. What cultural barriers do you face in your position? Have you come across challenges in how you handle cultural situations with students, teachers, or administrators? If so, have you considered skills that can help you facilitate conversations more effectively? How would you rate your organization’s effectiveness managing cultural situations? This article discusses how the use of cultural intelligence can address these concerns and help make us become more effective school library professionals.
