[LM_NET] TARGET: culturally diverse library collection??

["Betty Winslow, BGCA" <bgcalib@WCNET.ORG>]

A recent visitor said that he didn't think our library was culturally 
diverse enough. This took me by surprise, since that's been an emphasis of 
mine, so I thought I'd see what y'all thought. What does that phrase mean to 
you, and what books/authors/personages do you think a K-8 library should 
have in order to be considered culturally diverse? (We're a Christian 
school, if that changes anyone's list...) I'll post a hit if there's any 
interest.
