Which term denotes specific groups like teachers, students, or administrators?

• A. Target Audiences
• B. Thematic Collections
• C. Display Design
• D. Event Calendars

Answer: (A)

Understanding who a library’s services are for is the idea here. Target audiences are the specific groups—teachers, students, administrators—that a library aims to reach with its information, programs, and communications. Naming these groups helps librarians plan outreach, pick appropriate channels, and tailor resources to each group’s needs and interests. That focus on the people the library serves is what makes this term the best fit. The other options point to things like grouping materials by subject (thematic collections), how materials are shown (display design), or when programs happen (event calendars), none of which identify the people being served.
