Overview
This exploration of model storytelling projects shows librarians how to expand their roles as keepers of the stories while strengthening their communities.Community life is built on its stories. Our history and culture--those of society and of individuals--are passed from generation to generation through stories. Engaging Community through Storytelling: Library and Community Programming examines a wide variety of model storytelling projects across the country, reflecting how storytelling can encourage community attachment, identity, and expression in libraries, community centers, and schools. The contributed essays--written by experts in their fields, many of whom served as developer, fundraiser, director, and implementer of their project--provide detailed information about the inner workings of a wide variety of model storytelling projects from across the country. The authors delineate the need, scope, and audience for each project and offer riveting anecdotes that evaluate the success of that project. Many of the articles are accompanied by one or more photographs documenting the work or practical how-to-do-it guides to encourage and enable replication. Thoughtful commentary on and review of the key concepts in each chapter are provided by the book's editors.
