Recent legislation has focused attention on the integration of children with special needs into the community. How can library programs and services include families of children with special needs? What sensitivity issues must be addressed? Which collections should be provided? This basic how-to guide covers partnering and collaborating with parents and professionals; developing special collections and resources; assessing competencies and skills; principles underlying family-centered services and resource-based practices; and the interrelationship of early intervention, preschool special education, and library service. Descriptions of model programs and resources, checklists, and a list of related Internet sites and chat groups round out the volume.
