About the REFORMA Tucson Chapter

REFORMA is committed to improving the full spectrum of library and information services for the approximately 30 million Spanish-speaking and Latinos in the United States. Established in 1971 as an affiliate of the American Library Association, the goals of REFORMA include:

  • Development of Spanish-language and Latino-oriented library collections;
  • Recruitment of bilingual, bicultural library personnel;
  • Promotion of public awareness of libraries and librarianship among Latinos;
  • Advocacy on behalf of the information needs of the Latino community;
  • Liaison to other professional organizations.

REFORMA has actively sought to promote the development of library collections and the promotion of library professionals that work with Spanish-language and Hispanic-oriented materials and the Latino population at the local, regional and national levels.

About Our Chapter

The Tucson Chapter of REFORMA is autonomous. We work through the Tucson-area library systems and the Arizona State Library, Archives, and Public Documents to achieve local objectives.

We warmly invite all interested persons to join us in our efforts.

REFORMA is a non-profit organization incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia and is classified as a 501(c)(3) organization of the Internal Revenue Code.
