“LIBRARY INSIDERS” DEFINITION & WAYS TO BE INCLUSIVE
Ò Someone who feels at ease navigating the library.
Ò An individual who approaches the desk with a question or comment.
Ò An individual who uses resources and/or attends programs that are available, as a library user.
![Page 20: Inclusive Library Programs - Infopeople · 8/20/2013 · An Infopeople Webinar Tuesday, August 20, 2013 Noon to 1:00pm Pacific Time Presenters: Noelle Burch, Alison McKee and Kathy](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042300/5ecacb2743c8ab7a5225cbd4/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

CREATING AN “INSIDER” EXPERIENCE FOR EVERYONE
Ò For some individuals with intellectual disabilities, the library can be an intimidating environment.
Ò The goal of Library Insiders is to cultivate an “insider” experience for adults with intellectual disabilities.
Ò Specialized programs give library staff an opportunity to welcome someone who feels like an “outsider” into to an “inside” library experience.
