Free Webinar: More Than Welcome: Libraries Serving Families of Young Children with Disabilities 

Here is an opportunity for a free webinar through the University of Kentucky. The webinar will be April 26 from 1-3 pm on Zoom. If interested, you can register here.

"Public libraries provide rich learning opportunities for ALL young children and their caregivers. This interactive webinar, a culminating product of the Services for Children of ALL Abilities in Libraries: An Exploration (SCALE) project, will identify how libraries are currently serving families with young children with disabilities through spaces designed for play and social interaction, through programs that offer fun and interactive learning experiences, and through partnerships intended to address the interests and needs of families within and beyond the physical library. Join us to learn how libraries are working to be more than just welcoming for families of children with disabilities."
