Survey Item 7: Additional Comments
Services and Materials are Important Future Services Budget Cuts Diverse User Base
![Page 18: Comoeslabiblioteca1120931363287578181 1209316680853471 8[1]](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070303/5495b253b47959f9628b45ab/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Conclusion USG libraries are more likely to carry
Spanish-language and Hispanic-themed materials, but are they are less likely to carry bilingual materials.
Library services for Spanish-speaking students are extremely rare.
A majority of USG libraries have Spanish speakers on their staffs.
Diversity training is common in USG libraries.
USG directors are ambivalent regarding the need for Spanish-language materials in their libraries.

Questions For Future Study Considering the widespread support for Spanish-language and
Hispanic-themed materials, why were USG libraries so much less likely to carry bilingual materials?
Given that the majority of USG libraries carry Spanish-language and Hispanic-themed materials, why are Spanish language services almost non-existent?
If 53% of USG libraries have staff that speaks Spanish, then why aren’t more libraries offering reference help and bibliographic instruction/orientation in Spanish?
USG library directors are overwhelmingly neutral regarding the need for Spanish-language materials and services in their libraries. Is this view warranted?
