Elizabeth Mills writes: “For children with sensory or learning differences, [library programs like storytimes] may present barriers to benefitting from the play and learning in the program. A research team at the University of Washington has released the Autism-Ready Libraries Toolkit, which seeks to ‘empower youth-serving librarians and library staff with the early literacy training and programming materials they need to provide autism-inclusive early literacy services.’ The toolkit’s training and resources apply to both in- and out-of-library programming, and is also broadly relevant for anyone seeking to better understand and serve autistic children and their families.”
