Readers will learn about
- bridging the gap between people with disabilities and those without, through empathy, patience, and understanding;
- techniques for training staff and overcoming discomfort;
- making your library accessible for people with mobility issues;
- how to interact with and assist a person with limited sight or hearing;
- guidance for interacting with a service animal handler;
