Veterans are a unique community who chronically underuse their resources but also are frequently neglected by greater society. While reading through papers at the crossroads of libraries and veteran needs, I discovered the estimate that only 20% of veterans utilize their benefits (Adamich, 2018). I shared this statistic with veteran friends and they expressed that many veterans carry fears of judgement and medical paper trails that restrict their career opportunities. There are many obvious ways that libraries can attempt to be a beacon for this community through providing information, but I began to wonder: how can libraries become environments of connection and interaction for veterans?
