Cultural Competence
A congruent set of behaviors, attitudes, and policies that
enable a person or group to work effectively in cross-
cultural situations; the process by which individuals and
systems respond respectfully and effectively to people of
all cultures, languages, classes, races, ethnic
backgrounds, religions, and other diversity factors in a
manner that recognizes, affirms, and values the worth of
individuals, families, and communities and protects and
preserves the dignity of each.

Welcome to our Library
The history of the Ioway people is written in many books and being written today. We invite all people to read, learn and share the rich heritage of the Iowa Tribe and of our relatives.
We are dedicated to promoting the love and teaching of reading beginning with the youngest to the young of heart. Our library belongs to our people. It is for them and the community that our people live in that we strive to offer literacy, educational, computer skills, employment and health resources.
“Our library door is always open.”

Bridging the Gap
It’s not just about one cultural group, it’s
about acknowledging all of them and
welcoming them.
• How does this information change you?
• What are your ideas?
• What are the challenges?
• How do we connect theory to practice?
• Where do we go from here?
