Thanks, Rokinronda. Just wish that all of the work I have put on this massive international project would have paid off more with concrete results in the form of links to various victim assistance resources from all kinds of libraries in the United States as well as abroad.
It is extremely frustrating to put so much into something and not see that much of an impact. I have got a lot of lip service from politicians, some academics, some victim assistance groups, some association leaders, etc. but have not seen all that much in the form of efforts from librarians and others to reach out to victim assistance providers and make libraries and integral part of the victims of crimes healing process.
