In recent years many of the physical barriers to library access have been removed - steps, heavy or narrow doors and distant parking. But attitudinal barriers - the real handicappers - remain.
Through interviews with library users and employees who have disabilities, this tape outlines the basics of putting PEOPLE FIRST when addressing library service and individual needs. Whether your system is large or small, knowledgable, helpful, sensitive staff will make the difference in providing good library service.
PEOPLE FIRST is recommended for all library employees, as well as other groups or agencies that serve or employ people with disabilities.
