Abstract
This special edition newsletter addresses challenges faced by librarians around the world. On International Workers’ Day, we strive to celebrate, to honor, and to listen to library workers around the world. Their efforts to serve their communities are “imparables,” and they deserve working conditions that are appreciated, equitable, safe, and appropriately paid. Wherever there are libraries and librarians, life is just a little bit better, and whenever it is necessary to face injustice, libraries are one of the most important strongholds. The issue features eight articles in Spanish and three articles in English from around the world.
