HOLA is a support and learning group facilitated by the ICfL Read to Me program. The group is designed to provide the library community with the opportunity to help develop a statewide initiative on how to better serve Hispanic population in Idaho.

The HOLA group will:
• Act as focus group regarding improving and expanding library services to Hispanic families in Idaho
• Share resources on existing library services, programs, and resources for Hispanic patrons
• Participate in quarterly on-line webinars to:
  - share and discuss relevant topics affecting libraries which serve Hispanic populations
  - highlight great bilingual books (and give them away in drawings)
  - take virtual fieldtrips and explore existing best-practice programs and services in Idaho libraries
• Mentor libraries new to this area of service
