- Libraries: Spaces for Belonging, Support, and Partnerships Melissa Stormont Maria Cahill Bobbie Sartin Long Denice Adkins Alicia K. Long Derek T. M. Daskalakes Caroline Gooden Carol Russell Public Libraries Community Information Services Early Childhood Teachers Disabilities Young Children Librarians Library Services Library Facilities Librarian Teacher Cooperation Cooperative Programs Sense of Community Public libraries offer a wide range of developmental support and learning opportunities for young children with and without disabilities. Libraries in many communities function as hubs and places of support for parenting, literacy, education, technology, as well as general local, and health information. A research team recently conducted focus group interviews with early intervention service coordinators (SCs) in three states to capture their perspectives on how libraries serve families with young children with disabilities. Findings from those conversations suggest a need for more collaborative efforts between librarians and early childhood (EC) professionals to support young children with disabilities. For the benefit of EC professionals, libraries, and families of young children with disabilities, this article proposes that EC professionals and librarians concentrate their collaborative efforts on two fronts: (a) extending professional collaboration and partnerships and (b) increasing community awareness of library programs and services.
