This mixed methods study reports on seven library science and reading education students’ experiences before, during, and after a small newly developed short-term interdisciplinary study abroad, and its effects on their intercultural sensitivity. The evidence collected in this study affirms our belief that, as teachers and librarians interact with people from other cultures personally, they will be better prepared to interact with children, families, and colleagues from other cultures professionally
