摘要
International immigration has taken a prominent position on the global agenda as record numbers of people move across international borders. As the seventh most popular destination among immigrants, Canada has continued to receive a large share of immigrants, and Canadian institutions are poised to help resettle them. This article explores a segment of those institutions-namely, public libraries. The article presents various tactics employed by public libraries to serve their immigrant populations.
