Act

I am a Teaching Assistant in the library, and I've seen unique materials and books the students utilize. I've seen a neat variety of books that are diverse and unique to everyone. I believe that students should have the opportunity to learn about unique cultures and backgrounds, and to have a better understanding of these backgrounds. I find that the library is a safe and quiet space for everyone to work quietly and to engage in social interactions. While reading a book of their choice, many students can make connections to their lives. They can relate to the characters and/or the conflicts. Students also seek interest in the fiction genre of their choices, or if they wanted to read a non-fiction book to understand real-life scenarios.
