It's a guide for librarians with disabilities on supporting and advocating for themselves in the workplace, but also a resource for able-bodied and neurotypical managers and workers to learn how to be allies. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Chapters examine identities, intersections, The Americans with Disabilities Act, accommodations, advocacy, and collective care practices.
