In this week's episode, Mark Ambrogio and Anum Anjum are joined by Amber Matthews too discuss her work and research working with Black youth in Canada to better understand their experiences with public libraries and how they perceive them.  Amber identifies aspects of libraries that act as structural barriers and speaks on how representation and inclusion seen in community-based programs can inform the Canadian public library system.
