With his work with Libraries without Borders as his foundation, Chang discusses the differences in access and accessibility and what is required for a movement to reach their entire intended audience. Allister Chang is the Executive Director of Libraries Without Borders, a non-profit whose mission is to reinforce the autonomy of disadvantaged communities by expanding access to educational and cultural tools. Allister advocates for libraries to serve as spaces of innovation, economic development, and civic engagement, and has given keynote addresses at the Quebec Library Association Annual Conference and the WISE Summit. He has been a guest lecturer at Harvard and NYU, and has spoken on panels at Google, the Comparative International Education Society (CIES), and the Library of Congress. Allister holds a Master’s in Public Policy from the Harvard Kennedy School, where he was elected President of the Student Government. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
