On this episode of Building The Village, I’m joined by my friend Ingrid J. Ruffin, M.A. & M.L.I.S for a powerful conversation on the role of libraries, literacy, and librarians in strengthening our communities.
We talk about:
📚 Why libraries are more than just buildings with books
🤝 The courage it takes to ask for help—and why it matters in the village
🔑 The many types of literacies (beyond reading) that empower people to thrive
This episode is a reminder that literacy is not just about information—it’s about connection, access, and opportunity.
Listen in and let’s keep building better villages, one villager at a time.
