| The Scotch Plains Public Library and the Fanwood Memorial Library, together with our partners, produced a customer service training video primarily for library staff to help them serve individuals with autism and their families more effectively. The video focuses on what you need to know about autism and will empower you with specific techniques to offer more inclusive service to this growing and underserved population. We encourage you to explore this site and make free use of our support resources. To receive a free "Libraries and Autism: We're Connected" decal for your library, please contact us at autism@thejointlibrary.org.
Please take the time to let us know if the video and any of these materials have been of use to you via email or by taking this quick Special thanks to Ben, Brianna and Marco and their families, without whom this video would not have been possible. We acknowledge the invaluable contributions of:
Adrienne Robertiello, founder of Community Partnership for People with Autism, who created our logo, graphics and customizable resources. |
 | Our efforts were a part of the "Welcoming Library Spaces for the Autism Community and Their Families" incubator project, which was made possible by a contract with INFOLINK: The Eastern New Jersey Regional Library Cooperative. The Cooperative and its services are funded by the New Jersey State Library, which is responsible for the coordination, promotion and funding of the New Jersey Library Network. |
