Border Crossing

摘要

An inspirational level of collaboration has been undertaken between San Diego and Tijuana, Mexico. A memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed at the end of 2014 has set in motion deeper cross-cultural collaborations and opened opportunities to expand efforts already under way between these sister cities divided by one of the busiest international borders in the world. This high-level agreement between San Diego mayor Kevin L. Faulconer and Tijuana mayor Jorge Astiazaran embraces the potential connections and creates a framework for major local departments-including, but not limited to, libraries-to use as they pursue common goals. The San Diego Public Library (SDPL) is part of this initiative, and the work has already begun.
