#EngagedLibraries support citizenship dreams. 🏛️ Many come to the US to seek a better life, and that impact can potentially be no greater than for youth. The Kansas City Public Library in Missouri recently hosted its second-ever naturalization ceremony just for children and teenagers, welcoming 75 applicants from 33 countries as they officially became US citizens. The library has a dedicated Refugee & Immigrant Services & Empowerment (RISE) team that works with those seeking citizenship to give them the tools to succeed in their reaching their goals and dreams. 📲 We want to know how your library supports those seeking US citizenship. Share your story on social media by including #EngagedLibraries and tagging OCLC in your post. You could be featured in an upcoming issue of Abstracts, on our community engagement hub, in an upcoming blog or video, or across our social media channels. ⤵️ See more from the ceremony. --- #OCLC #PublicLibrary #PublicLibraries #AcademicLibrary #AcademicLibraries #Library #Libraries #Librarian #Librarians #LibraryLife #LibraryLove
