<p class=MsoNormal>Hello! There has been a great conversation about
libraries and disabled patrons on ALA’s Association of Library Services
to Children’s email discussion list. This morning a librarian
recommended <i>Teaching About Disabilities Through Children’s Literature </i>by
Tina Taylor Dyches and Mary Anne Prater. Considering this email discussion and
a growing interested how to appropriately serve children with disabilities in
the library, I wanted to remind you that this title is available to checkout
from the State Library. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#365F91'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span class=bolding>If you would like to request
this or other materials from the Oregon State Library please use your
library's established interlibrary loan process or send your full
name, the name of your library, complete title information, shipping address,
