Library Access for All / ADA Committee Fall Program

For details and to register, visit: http://ctlibraryassociation.org/meetinginfo.php?id=228

Do you know what kinds of assistive technology your library can offer to patrons with disabilities? Or how to interact with a patron who exhibits traits of mental illness or one who wants to bring an animal into the building?

If you answered "No" to any of those questions, please join us for a morning of learning how to make our library buildings, services, and programs accessible to everyone in the community.
