Abstract
Neurodiverse individuals benefit from specialized library programming designed for their needs. Creating successful programs for this audience requires establishing a supportive, organization-wide mindset. Plano Public Library will share how it developed autism- and neurodiverse-friendly programming that supports education, inclusion, and access by effectively training staff and working with community partners.
