NEEDED FOR TOMORROW: STRONG FOUNDATION, INNOVATION, DIVERSITY
Conversations around food are often lively
and provide a window into the lives of others.
As part of the ALA Masters Series, Liz Fitzgerald from the Free Library of Philadelphia's
Culinary Literacy Center presented on the
use of cooking and culinary programing, as
an invitation to connect to other people in the
community and bring them into the library.
The Culinary Literacy Center now has a
commercial-grade kitchen classroom. The mission is to advance literacy through food and
cooking around a community table.
Libraries serve the needs of their patrons
and the Culinary Literacy Center addresses
some of the major needs of the city. A large
population of adults in Philadelphia are in the
low-literacy level, one in four is food insecure,
and obesity is an issue for both adults and
children. This programming has brought in
many who are not typically library patrons.
Public programing includes knife skills,
vegan classes, cheese making classes, butchering, and cookbook authors. Leanne Brown's
Good and Cheap is a resource given to patrons
and students in many of the classes.
The Free Library also has offerings for target populations including an ESL program;
a program for pre-K with academic, health
and nutrition, and chef standards; a program
for adults with disabilities; and a program for
people with low visibility. The Recipes for
Change program was directed toward refugee
and immigrant women in the city. The sixweek Edible Alphabet program teaches ESL
students different recipes and their ingredients.
Culinary Literacy programs can be done
anywhere. Librarians wishing to start their
own culinary literacy programing are encouraged to reach out to chefs at local restaurants
as they are often open to coming to the library
to teach a class. Librarians can lead classes for
kids, but outside teachers such as dieticians,
state university extension services, culinary
school interns, and other nonprofits around
food insecurity may be brought in.
