Trauma Sensitivity at the Sacramento Public Library

This great idea would be wonderful to implement in communities around the country:

“I would notice how popular teen books on these topics were, but how rare actual questions about them from teen library patrons were,” Azevedo said. “Most of the topics would be embarrassing to ask about, but some of them could threaten their privacy or even safety if asked in front of people or discovered by parents in a search engine history.”

As one observer pointed out, these are the Dewey system entry numbers, so that means any youth, or anyone, seeing this photo can look the information up at their local library in total privacy.
