| contents | Library Programming for Autistic Children and Teens, Second Edition Anderson, Amelia Autism Pervasive Developmental Disorders Children Adolescents Library Services Public Libraries School Libraries Elementary Secondary Education Best Practices Accessibility (for Disabled) School Community Relationship This second edition provides key information, updated program ideas, and practical tips that will help library workers feel more prepared to serve members of this prevalent population. Since the first edition of this landmark guide was published, there has been increased interest in services for library patrons on the autism spectrum; indeed, more people of all ages now self-identify as autistic. Those who understand the unique characteristics of autistic young people know that ordinary library programming guides are not up to the task of effectively serving these library users. Well qualified to speak to this need, Anderson is an educator, library researcher, and former public librarian who has helped to develop two IMLS funded initiatives that train library workers to better understand and serve autistic patrons. Here, she offers librarians who work with children and teens in both public library and K-12 educational settings an updated, comprehensive resource that includes: (1) an updated introduction to the basics of autism, including language, symbolism, and best practices in the library rooted in the principles of Universal Design; (2) step-by-step programs from librarians across the country, adaptable for both public and school library settings, that are cost-effective and easy to replicate; (3) contributions from autistic self-advocates throughout the text, demonstrating that the program ideas included are truly designed with their preferences in mind; and (4) suggestions for securing funding and establishing partnerships with community organizations; and many helpful appendices, with handy resources for training and education, building a collection, storytimes, sensory integration activities, and a "Tips for a Successful Library Visit" template. [Foreword by Barbara Klipper. This content is provided in the format of an e-book.] |
