This collective arose from a need to build community to address feelings of isolation in the struggle to research\, translate\, plan programming\, and manage collections. For immigrant and minority communities\, language-appropriate resources are essential to foster a foundation of cultural identity and a sense of belonging\, alongside promoting literacy and early learning skills. By developing and promoting culturally sustaining bilingual Vietnamese storytimes\, the collective provides a model of uplifting diverse community’s cultures\, stories\, and songs in order to foster communal joy\, which is inseparable from individual heritage\, resilience\, and empowerment. The exploratory grant phase enables UCLA researchers to bring together Việt storytime facilitators with Los Angeles Public Library (LAPL) and the Asian Pacific American Librarians Association (APALA) experts as partners.
