Abstract

In this article, we – an outreach librarian and an undergraduate library student worker – reflect on two COVID-era projects which came out of the need for connection in our communities. These projects demonstrate the importance of creative and iterative outreach projects, particularly given the uncertainty and isolation during ongoing times of crisis.
