But they shouldn't! 12:10:24 From Julie Edwards to Everyone: If any of you are interested in seeing the webinar JJ did for us last year, you can check that out for free here: https://www.nicheacademy.com/blog/accessibility-in-your-library 12:10:33 From Amanda DeLand to Everyone: A lot of left-handed people are, by default, forced to do that and make their own accommodations. šŸ˜ž 12:10:49 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: Very true, Amanda! 12:11:03 From Rupangi Bakshi to Everyone: Thank you for last year's webinar link. 12:11:25 From Matt Cross to Everyone: Another lefty here, and yeah, forced to use right-handed scissors. 12:11:28 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: Iā€™m serious about my left handed scissors. They donā€™t leave my desk!!! 12:11:50 From Sandra Delgado to Everyone: Same here Matt 12:13:04 From Mary Sherwood to Everyone: going through that now 12:13:15 From Amanda DeLand to Everyone: Maybe we could also say that we wouldn't force someone to go without glasses/contacts as a common aid? 12:14:00 From Lauri Lindqvist to Everyone: šŸ‘ 12:14:08 From Rachel White to Host and Panelists: Is an official diagnosis needed? Iā€™ve dealt with chronic health issues for 3 years and have had tons of diagnostic tests, none of which have confirmed what is my very real physical limitations. Can my doctor still write the documentation despite the lack of official diagnosis? 12:15:07 From Julie Edwards to Rachel White, Host and Panelists: Hi Rachel - Can you stick this in the Q&A box so it doesnā€™t get lost in the chat! 12:15:27 From Christine Strlich to Everyone: The glasses/contacts example works better. 12:15:55 From Kristy Reynolds to Everyone: The chair issue you are dealing with is one that is an issue for me on a regular basis. 12:16:17 From Stefanie Davis to Everyone: I'm left-handed and it's not a bad example. we still get the premise of it. 12:16:31 From Linda Senkus Benedict to Everyone: Glasses/contacts example is long term and always like accomodations often have to be, unlike scissors, which is another reason it works better as an example 12:16:43 From Jared Dempsey to Everyone: for depression i'd find a view with sunlight instead of a basement helpful personally 12:16:48 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: There are also challenges to finding a "good" doctor/therapist who isn't ableist. I'm neurodiverse, but don't have an exact diagnosis. I want to get diagnosed but I have no idea who to go to since I've had previous experiences. I'm also deaf and I've been to a therapist who outright said I wouldn't get any benefit learning ASL cause I was raised in a hearing environment. That has just made me hesitant to go to a therapist. 12:17:44 From Jennifer Rutner to Host and Panelists: A quick note: our library accessibility policy explicitly includes providing accommodations (within our ability) for everyoneā€”recognizing that not all disabled people will be officially registered with our Disability Resources Center. Being registered with the DRC is not a requirement for requesting an accommodation from the library. 12:18:14 From Stefanie Davis to Everyone: I thought I had a minor accommodation, but didn't get good reception from manager. I ended up getting FMLA, which is just temporary. But at least now they respond better to my needs regarding migraines--light sensitivity, etc. 12:18:17 From Taliesin Gamache to Everyone: That and cost prohibition are what is holding one of my official diagnosis back. I don't have $2000 to drop on a possibly ableist doc 12:18:31 From Matt Cross to Everyone: My problem with psychiatry in general is that they typically are there for medication management and spend very, very little time with you, often less than 10 minutes. 12:18:32 From Julie Edwards to Jennifer Rutner, Host and Panelists: Excellent info Jennifer - this only went to me, so you may want to resend it to everyone! 12:18:34 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: I'm here sorry I'm late 12:19:51 From Mary Sherwood to Everyone: one of my bosses said it will need to be done each year 12:20:06 From Denise Smith to Everyone: Needed an ergonomic keyboard and mouse and provided note from doctor with de quervain's tenosynovitis diagnosis. Supervisor said didn't need to go through HR. He simply ordered the items I needed. I had them really quickly. 12:20:25 From Julie Edwards to Everyone: Hi all - just a reminder that we do share the chat transcript on our blog. Feel free to share anything youā€™d like but you donā€™t have to share anything you donā€™t want to! 12:20:28 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: Iā€™m the child of blind parents and my father was an advocate for children with disabilities in Arkansas in the 1980s and 1990s. And he was an activist fighting to get the Rehab Act of 1973 and ADA of 1990 passed. Iā€™m regularly frustrated with our HR folks about using the word ā€œreasonable accommodationā€ because I was taught ā€œreasonableā€ was a bad word. Who is it reasonable for - the employer or the employee? My dad used to say that reasonable was like equal in the separate but equal statute. As history has taught us, equal was not equal. 12:21:08 From Jennifer Rutner to Everyone: FYI, at my library we explicitly state that students do not need to be registered with the DRC to request an accommodation. Given all of the context that JJ is providing, there are very real barriers to diagnosis and registration, and some people (including myself) have disabilities we choose not to disclose. 12:21:10 From Brandi Mcdonough to Everyone: Once you have been granted an accommodation, can they later take that accommodation from you? 12:21:28 From Jennifer Rutner to Everyone: DRC = Disability resource center 12:21:38 From Stefanie Davis to Everyone: I thought being allowed to temporarily wear sunglasses was reasonable. I'd only wear them during migraines that cause light sensitivity. I ended up getting prescription lenses with a tint. They haven't said anything to me since. 12:22:30 From Elizabeth Gray to Everyone: @Heather Good for your parents! My dad fought for the ADA, too, having a spinal cord injury and trying to find work with a serious disability. I think libraries could do a lot more to hire people with disabilities. 12:23:03 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: @Heather & @Elizabeth; I agree with you both! 12:23:28 From Jaclyn Hoimes to Host and Panelists: What if it is determined an employee cannot fulfill one (or more) essential job functions and there is not another role for the employee to fill or budget to create a new role? 12:23:58 From Julie Edwards to Jaclyn Hoimes, Host and Panelists: Hi Jaclyn - if youā€™d like JJ to address this, please drop it in the Q&A! 12:23:58 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: @Elizabeth I agree about libraries doing more. Also doing more to serve patrons with disabilities. Blind folks can use audio books from local library as well as Library for Blind and Visually Impaired. 12:24:12 From Eileen Holland to Everyone: Technically that WFH lunch situation should count under the third category of reasonable accommodations: "equal benefits and privileges of employment" 12:24:18 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: šŸ˜‚Have you tried yoga!!! I love that!!! 12:24:44 From Valerie Moore to Everyone: So do you mean to generally ask, "What do you need to do your job well?" 12:25:06 From Lynda Gillow to Everyone: spreading PPI, ick! 12:25:16 From Jaclyn Hoimes to Host and Panelists: Done- Thanks for the reminder. 12:25:39 From c d to Everyone: especially if it is an "invisible" disability (cognitive) 12:25:52 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: CD yes!!! 12:25:58 From Nancy Garmer to Everyone: What is work performance is suffering - perhaps neurodiverse of some sort. Can you still ask if they need accommodation? 12:26:04 From Matt Cross to Everyone: I've found it difficult to find a job, in large part because I do not drive. 12:26:50 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: No it does not work that way 12:27:47 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: Oh yes it is!!! 12:27:50 From Valerie Moore to Everyone: Yeah...it can be. 12:28:20 From Angela Fondren to Everyone: I live with an "invisible" disability and have been accused of not being disabled cause I "don't like a handicap person". Just cause you can't "see" a disability doesn't mean that someone doesn't have a disability. 12:28:21 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: I went through this when getting a practicum in grad school 12:28:28 From Melinda Supp to Everyone: If a semi apparent disability appears to be effecting an emplyee's work and they have not asked for an accommodation can we ask them if they need any accommodation? 12:29:00 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: Especially if libraries are part of a broader agency such as working for a city government or a school district. Even if the library itself is willing to accommodate you, the agency, etc that they answer to and are funded by may not agree 12:29:03 From Julie Edwards to Everyone: If any of you are subscribers to Niche Academy we have a great tutorial series on working with staff with disabilities - including recruiting, hiring, and working together. 12:29:03 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: @Matt are they asking you if you can drive or is driving part of the job? Or are they asking you if you have reliable transportation? 12:29:05 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: Because people are afraid to come forward 12:29:57 From Amanda DeLand to Everyone: "You're proud of having the bare minimum" That really puts it into perspective for me! 12:30:22 From Julie Edwards to Lauren Ferrara, Host and Panelists: Hi Lauren - I see your hand is raised. Can I help? 12:30:23 From megan gallipeau to Everyone: a lot of companies don't even do the bare minimum, the bar is on the ground and people still go out of their way to duck under it 12:30:29 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: @Amanda - I agree! Iā€™m going to start using that one, JJ!!! 12:30:47 From Kerisa Shorthouse to Everyone: Can you copy that link for the national network to the chat? 12:30:50 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: I just wanted to know Why it is still like this? 12:31:04 From Matt Cross to Everyone: @Heather -- hasn't come up yet, but I'm not sure how to broach the issue in an interview. Even if I have reliable transportation, if I cannot drive, it's an issue, especially when public transit is not available (such as on weekends) 12:31:18 From Julie Edwards to Everyone: https://www.ndrn.org/about/ndrn-member-agencies/ 12:31:26 From Elizabeth Gray to Everyone: National Disability Rights Network https://www.ndrn.org/about/ndrn-member-agencies 12:31:48 From Jared Dempsey to Everyone: A lot of it seems to come on the fact we've spent so many years accommodating physical disabilities that we're just now starting to understand enough about the nuerodivergent to understand what their accommodation needs are and that they're just as valid 12:31:48 From Angela Fondren to Everyone: As the web person for my library, I have pushed to make sure our services and public-facing web pages and guides offer some form of ADA accommodations. I will work with a patron to make sure that they have access with whatever accommodation I can provide. 12:31:52 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: I also hear a lot about the building being ā€œgrandfathered.ā€ Grandfathering is a copout. 12:32:00 From Elizabeth Gray to Everyone: Thank you for the cat pictures :) 12:32:01 From Angela Fondren to Everyone: Oooooo kitties!! 12:32:05 From Michelle Sanchez to Everyone: AWWWW cute kitties! 12:32:11 From Donna Dean to Everyone: Cat tax! 12:32:12 From Lily Hunter to Host and Panelists: Kitties!! 12:32:13 From Olivia Todd to Everyone: Cat tax! 12:32:13 From Andrea Raymer to Everyone: Yayyyyy kitties! <3 12:32:17 From Danica Easley to Everyone: come for the presentation, stay for the cat pics 12:32:23 From Amanda DeLand to Everyone: Fluffies! 12:32:25 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: LOVE THE CAT PICS 12:32:29 From Hannah Stiglitz to Everyone: Kitties! 12:32:30 From Margaret Holt to Everyone: Here kitty kitties.. 12:32:36 From Megan Bennis to Everyone: šŸˆ 12:32:52 From Cheryl Livengood to Everyone: How are allergies classified under the ADA? 12:33:04 From Martha Olver to Everyone: love the cat pics, too! 12:33:04 From Rachel Friedman to Everyone: I'm a head librarian; I have lot to think about. Thank you. 12:33:09 From Julie Edwards to Everyone: Please put questions in the Q&A box so they donā€™t get lost in the chat! 12:33:13 From Eileen Holland to Everyone: @Cheryl they are a disability 12:33:18 From Jennifer Garden to Everyone: C-PTSD here too. It sucks. 12:33:36 From Martha Olver to Everyone: I hope all the tips in the chat can be saved and sent along with the recording ... 12:33:56 From Matt Cross to Everyone: @Cheryl - here's the JAN page for allergies: https://askjan.org/disabilities/Allergies.cfm 12:34:18 From Kiyomi Deards to Everyone: My doctor filled out our form using the terminology from JAN website by limitation https://askjan.org/a-to-z.cfm 12:34:23 From Christine Strlich to Everyone: Love the cat pics! 12:34:24 From Elizabeth Gray to Everyone: @Angela what do you find helpful for your website? ability to increase font size, alt-text, etc? We have an accessible services page to try to increase awareness of things in the library branches. 12:34:33 From Michelle Reeves-Osborne to Everyone: C-PTSD as well and it is awful, sometimes the most mundane things or phases can trigger you and now you're on guard for the rest of the day. 12:34:41 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: I think a lot non-disabled people think of accommodations as a way of getting out of work and that is not it at all!!! 12:35:11 From Kiyomi Deards to Everyone: JAN provides information about what type of accommodations are normal for what limitation 12:35:20 From Cheryl Livengood to Everyone: Do you need a doctor's note about your allergies enough to get accommodations or is more needed? 12:36:50 From Rachel White to Host and Panelists: I think a lot of people with Long Covid havenā€™t gotten any official diagnoses, but their physical limitations are very real. 12:37:07 From Rebekah Bitikofer to Host and Panelists: https://askjan.org/disabilities/Allergies.cfm? 12:37:23 From Julie Edwards to Rebekah Bitikofer, Host and Panelists: Hi! This came just to me - please resend to the group! 12:37:26 From Rebekah Bitikofer to Everyone: https://askjan.org/disabilities/Allergies.cfm? 12:37:29 From Elizabeth Gray to Everyone: truth! 12:37:33 From Jessica Harris to Host and Panelists: When I was a teenager, I was denied reasonable accommodation (a chair) to do a task that was not needed to be done while standing. My employers said it gave the impression to customers that I wasn't working hard and it wasn't fair to other employees. I was fired and I contacted the EEOC. Won that suit at 16. 12:37:49 From Angela Fondren to Everyone: @ Elizabeth - I have worked on government, non-profit, and commercial websites for the past 40 years. I have worked to make companies aware of color-blindness issues with web colors. I try to remind folks to add the Alt Text to pictures so that a patron using a descriptive text viewer will understand what the graphic is. 12:37:59 From Lauren Ferrara to Host and Panelists: Yes I've struggled with Dyscalculia and aspbergers 12:38:00 From Rachel White to Host and Panelists: Someone with chronic pain may not have any official diagnosis yet what they experience is very real. 12:38:31 From Joanna Bailey to Everyone: I'm having more issues with things I have been able to manage on my own for decades. Aging definitely adds to the load. 12:38:35 From Kirsten DeCortin to Everyone: Yes, Heather! I worry about that perception a lot. I'm hearing impaired and struggle immensely with using phones with my CI/HA. Bluetooth technology with work phones just isn't there yet, and would be a hardship for me to use. The best solution at the moment is to avoid phone usage unless absolutely necessary, and I worry that it comes off as me just wanting to get out of phone reference. 12:39:16 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: @Kirsten, you can request a device or caption telephone to help you with that 12:39:20 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: those devices exist 12:39:37 From Elizabeth Gray to Everyone: @Anglea Thank you! Yes, we have been checking our color contrast regularly. I am hoping to get a group of our community organizations together for a learning session on accessible documents and websites. So that our whole community gets more informed, at least a little bit! 12:39:58 From Angela Fondren to Everyone: @ Elizabeth - I try to hit the top recommendations for ADA-compliance on the web and then will work with patrons that come in and ask for help with our website. 12:39:58 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: though I am limited with how much phone time I have because the captions aren't exact and we get weird questions from patrons who ask several questions at once and it is overwhelming so my coworkers agreed to take those calls 12:40:26 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: @Kristen - I hate phone work but itā€™s not a hearing thing for me. I just donā€™t like being on the phone. But I bet there is someone who like phone work but doesnā€™t like something else maybe you could trade. 12:40:50 From Lori Durbin to Everyone: Can't you just push through? You don't look like you have anything wrong. You were okay yesterday! Are you depressed? All questions/comments I've heard as a person with Fibromyalgia and arthritis. I do push through most days. No, I know I look "normal", Yes, I was more okay yesterday, and I do not have clinical depression, but being in pain is depressing at times! 12:40:56 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: @Kirsten, you can also see if your coworkers are willing to do more answering the phone for you, but that entails having supportive coworkers. Thankfully, I have them but I realize that not everyone does 12:41:55 From Jacqueline Huggins to Everyone: not all co-workers are supportive despite the sensitization and education 12:41:56 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: Wasnā€™t the Free Library of Philadelphia sued by National Federation of the Blind for receiving federal dollars for one project and because they werenā€™t compliant on other devices (Nooks) the judge ordered in NFB favor. 12:42:27 From Kirsten DeCortin to Everyone: Thank you, Alicia! The captioning telephones aren't an option for our public service desk/shared phones, unfortunately... Things are better now; my department's no longer expected to do phone reference all the time, just to fill in if necessary, which is rare, and no one has seemed resentful when they do need to answer phones, which is a relief. 12:42:36 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: https://nfb.org/about-us/press-room/national-federation-blind-applauds-settlement-free-library-philadelphia 12:42:53 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: There is a captioning tablet that will hook up to any desk phone. 12:43:01 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: Let me find the link for you! It's what I use! 12:43:18 From Kiyomi Deards to Everyone: @Cheryl, for Allergies I would cite things like Take Medication, Effect of/Receive Medical Treatment, Decreased Stamina/Fatigue, Food Allergy, Fragrance Sensitivity, etc. to ask for accommodation. A lot of us who have bad allergies get migraines so you could look at accommodations under that JAN topic too. 12:43:26 From Angela Fondren to Everyone: @Elizabeth - There are several websites that will review your website for ADA accessibility. We can't make our websites fit every accommodation for all people, but we can hit the top changes that can help a majority. Look at your community and determine who your say top 3 patrons groups and what you can do to make using your web easier for them. 12:43:31 From Christine Kreger to Everyone: @Angela Colorado just passed a law that all websites and online documents have to be accessible by July 2024 (and yes, they always should have been. I collected information for Colroado library staff here - https://www.librarieslearn.org/digital-accessibility 12:43:32 From Curren McLane to Everyone: I would love to have a separate webinar on this topic specifically about accommodating patrons in programming. 12:43:38 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: https://teltex.com/teltex-glt-w-v2t-10/ 12:43:44 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: that is the device I use, Kirsten! 12:43:54 From Hannah Stiglitz to Everyone: @Curren same! 12:44:06 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: Videos on usage: Patron Captioning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QVP1oGrtsg Call Captioning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0qpUXsdV_I 12:44:35 From Lily Hunter to Host and Panelists: OH GOD. Iā€™m in the middle of that!! 12:44:42 From Angela Fondren to Everyone: @ Christine - Thanks for the link. 12:44:48 From Kirsten DeCortin to Everyone: Thank you, Alicia! 12:44:55 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: you're welcome! 12:45:15 From Alia Almansoori to Host and Panelists: Thank you Alia Almansoori 12:45:43 From Joyce Thompson-Haas to Everyone: @curren that would be a great webinar! 12:46:02 From Huda Alnuaimi to Host and Panelists: Thank you 12:46:32 From Cheryl Livengood to Everyone: Thanks for the website on allergies. 12:46:33 From Lori Durbin to Everyone: @Curren - agreed! I think that topic is important! 12:46:38 From Lauren Ferrara to Host and Panelists: But you know they don't follow this 12:46:49 From Julie Edwards to Everyone: If any of you need to be in touch with me, please use this address: julie@nicheacademy.com 12:46:58 From Stacey Gosselin to Everyone: Thank you for this information. Greatly appreciated. 12:47:10 From Julie Edwards to Everyone: Rather than the webinar@nicheacademy.com address! 12:47:36 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: @Curran yes so important! 12:47:40 From Angela Fondren to Everyone: I will tell a potential new employer that I have a disability and I will explain that disability once I have been hired. If they are good with that, then I probably won't be working there. 12:47:56 From Kiyomi Deards to Everyone: Another consideration when interviewing is does the library offer enough sick leave 12:48:12 From Lauren Ferrara to Host and Panelists: KIyomi YES!! 12:50:00 From Lauren Ferrara to Host and Panelists: Great Question!!! I have heard people say "you don't look disabled" or "you just need to try harder" 12:50:01 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: @Curran PLA did a few webinars last year in Portland about patron programming and disability. I think those are still online. 12:50:24 From Rebekah Bitikofer to Everyone: Reminds me of people calling autism a super power 12:50:27 From Kristy Reynolds to Everyone: Having an invisible disability is a huge issue for both my children 12:50:38 From Jessica Harris to Host and Panelists: My disability is fairly invisible and I always get called out for taking the elevator when I'm "young and can take the stairs!" 12:50:41 From Janet Huber to Everyone: thanks for all the excellent information! gotta go! 12:50:56 From Lauren Ferrara to Host and Panelists: Rebekah YES!!! I'm still waiting on that!!! 12:51:03 From Sarah Regan to Everyone: Thanks, this was great! 12:51:08 From Lucy Bobeck to Everyone: Thanks. 12:51:13 From Matt Cross to Everyone: I'm not sure how I would be able to bite my tongue. -- "Um, are you the person with the disability?" 12:51:21 From Linda Rice to Everyone: I had to step for a minute and you may has address this. How does this pertain to people with anxiety, bi-polar depression and depression? 12:51:24 From Lauren Ferrara to Host and Panelists: Matt yeah 12:51:47 From Rebekka Howell to Everyone: I get a lot of people saying that I don't act like I have that illness or that I seem "normal" 12:52:03 From Lauren Ferrara to Host and Panelists: I ask then well just what does diability look like? 12:52:21 From Amanda DeLand to Everyone: @Rebekah I agree - It can feel nice to think of things like special interests and pattern-spotting as autism superpowers, but it's not something you want to hear when you're overstimulated and near meltdown. 12:53:15 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: Rebekah Yes I'm still waiting for my cape!!! And Matt Yes 12:53:59 From Angela Fondren to Everyone: I just wanted to mention here that librarians can be a great resource for patrons with disabilities. Being in an academic library, I have seen our students struggles and will do what I can to help them get the services that would make live much better. I have even gone with them to get the assistance because they were unsure what to ask and who to talk with to get some help. 12:54:05 From Linda Taylor to Everyone: I am in HR and we have an obligation to use the interactive process which always involves the employee with the supervisors. In fact, the interactive process typically requires it. 12:54:10 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: And I have asked people "what does disability look like"? 12:54:22 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: Iā€™m amazing that teachers donā€™t want my dyslexic child in his IEP meetings. But he needs to be there! He needs to have a say in his accommodations etc. 12:55:14 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: And I have been told that I am just not trying Frustrating.....Heather why not??? When I was in my meetings they spoke about me like I was not there.... 12:55:28 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: But he needs to be there 12:55:35 From Cheryl Livengood to Everyone: what is ablism(sp.) ? 12:55:41 From Matt Cross to Everyone: I'm wondering if it would be appropriate to ask for an accommodation along the lines of asking for the interview questions ahead of time because of difficulty remembering examples, such as for behavioral questions? (I put this in the Q&A, too) 12:56:11 From Stefanie Davis to Everyone: @Matt Cross, me too. 12:56:17 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: Cheryl Ableism is discrimination against disabled people 12:56:25 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: I lost my hearing as a child but never had an IEP evaluation to receive accommodations. I didn't even realize I was legally required to have one. Later, as an adult a few years ago, my parents told me that they were told that I didn't need one because I was "smart". 12:56:37 From Cheryl Livengood to Everyone: Thank you! 12:56:37 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: @Lauren YOU are trying!!! So much more than anyone else. Just remember that!!! 12:56:46 From Mallory Witham to Everyone: My Dad worked as a rehab counselor for years and taught at a very early age that everyone is a "TAB" (temporarily able bodied... 12:56:46 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: or rather that I didn't need accommodations because I was smart 12:56:57 From Kiyomi Deards to Everyone: In our process with HR the employee will work with HR first for a recommended accommodation you are happy with and then you can choose to be in the initial meeting with your supervisor or not. At any time you can meet with the HR person and your supervisor, but if they sign off on the accommodation you want without meeting that is nice. 12:56:58 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: TY HZ 12:56:59 From Julie Edwards to Everyone: If anyone is interested in JJā€™s presentation last year you can check it out here: https://www.nicheacademy.com/blog/accessibility-in-your-library 12:57:02 From Shweta Gandhi to Everyone: Yes - HR can accommodate this request if you ask this in writing prior to your interview @Matt Cross 12:57:07 From Joshua Yang to Everyone: I feel you. I am in my 40s as well. 12:57:27 From Lake Bjork to Everyone: Thank you so much for all of this information! 12:57:37 From Kiyomi Deards to Everyone: @Matt providing interview questions ahead of time is a best practice at many places now so I think it is fine to ask for that. 12:57:57 From Alexandria Kennedy to Everyone: Thank you so much for this! 12:58:00 From PattiJo Wagner to Everyone: Thank you so much. Great info. Have a beautiful day everyone. 12:58:06 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: @Alicia Iā€™m so sorry!!! I was in so many meetings with my dad were school districts did everything they could to get out of IEP meetings and providing accommodations. 12:58:12 From Anne Haines to Everyone: we've started sending out our interview questions ahead of time (the same amount of time for each applicant) for this reason - plus, "being able to deal with surprise questions and the pressure o f thinking on the spot" is not something we are trying to measure in the interview anyway! 12:58:17 From Kay Coates to Everyone: Thank you so very much. 12:58:17 From Dr. Elizabeth Johnson to Everyone: Thank you for this great information 12:58:17 From Linda Rice to Everyone: How does pertain people with anxiety, depression, bipolar and bipolar depression? 12:58:18 From Kara Cleveland to Host and Panelists: I feel like I'm always fighting for my accommodations. Are there any affordable lawyers out there? 12:58:22 From Elizabeth Gray to Everyone: @Angela, yes, we will look at our demographics and see what are the top changes we can do for ADA accessibility on our website. Thank you! 12:58:36 From Clayton McKenzie to Everyone: Thank you so much for this presentation. It was very eye-opening. I always considered my myself pretty good with accessibility, and this showed me I am never done improving. 12:58:41 From Heather Zbinden to Everyone: Anxiety, depression etc are covered by ADA. 12:58:44 From Margaret Holt to Everyone: Thank you JJ & Julie! This was very informative. 12:58:54 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: I belonged to an honor society called Delta Alpha Pi Honor society that celebrates the achievements of people with disabilities and Chronic conditions.... And I heard one of our members say they were asked are you sure you want to list them on your resume because it can hurt your chances on getting a job when they youre connected to a disability group.... 12:58:58 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: @Heather, yep that was my experience. My parents were just as confused as I was by it all and the school didn't help us navigate any of that 12:59:05 From Evangeline Reid to Host and Panelists: What was that called again? Enable ? 12:59:05 From Alicia Deal to Everyone: so had to adapt as best I could somehow 12:59:06 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: Yes its still out there not just in libraries 12:59:09 From Michelle Reeves-Osborne to Everyone: Can we get a link to the list please? 12:59:28 From Matt Cross to Everyone: Gee, I'm turning 40 tomorrow, actually. Ha. 12:59:36 From Hilary Nihlen to Host and Panelists: JJ, I was introduced to your work when I was in my MLIS program. Iā€™m so grateful for it. Thank you so much! 12:59:42 From Lori Durbin to Everyone: Thank you, JJ and Julie! I appreciate your time and knowledge! 12:59:45 From CJ Raich to Everyone: https://projectenable.syr.edu/ 12:59:47 From Angela Fondren to Everyone: @ Matt Cross - Happy birthday!! 12:59:48 From Heather Clark to Everyone: Thank you! 12:59:49 From Michelle Fisher to Everyone: Thank you so much! 12:59:50 From Joyce Thompson-Haas to Everyone: Thank you! 12:59:51 From Erin Kelly to Everyone: Thank you! 12:59:51 From Lauren Ferrara to Everyone: THANK YOU JJ 12:59:52 From Katherine Goff to Everyone: Thank you and take care. 12:59:53 From Thadious Polasek to Everyone: Thank you!!!! 12:59:55 From Diana Cassulis to Everyone: Thank you! 12:59:55 From Joshua Yang to Everyone: Thank you! 12:59:55 From Jessica Harris to Host and Panelists: Thank you! 12:59:55 From Rachel Pecotte to Everyone: Thank you JJ 12:59:56 From Linda Taylor to Everyone: Thank you! 12:59:56 From Ana Gutierrez to Host and Panelists: Thank you so much JJ! 12:59:56 From Abigail Scullen to Host and Panelists: Many thanks! 12:59:57 From Martha Tanner to Everyone: Thank you! 12:59:57 From Maia Hackett to Everyone: Thank you! 12:59:57 From Angela Eck to Everyone: Thank you! 12:59:58 From Lori Scott to Everyone: Thank you so much! 12:59:59 From Dena Simpson to Everyone: Thank you so much. 12:59:59 From Angela Fondren to Everyone: Great presentation! 13:00:00 From Rebekah Bitikofer to Everyone: Thanks JJ! 13:00:00 From Dwain Teague to Everyone: fantastic, thank you! 13:00:00 From Kimberly Kennedy to Host and Panelists: Wonderful presentation, thank you! 13:00:01 From Kirsten DeCortin to Everyone: Thank you so much! 13:00:01 From Valerie Moore to Everyone: Thank you so much! 13:00:01 From Lois J.

I've written down your email. 13:00:13 From Brian Smallwood to Everyone: Thank you so much! 13:00:14 From Eileen Holland to Everyone: TYSM JJ!!! 13:00:14 From Tami Masenhimer to Everyone: Thank you! 13:00:14 From Kristi Hickson to Everyone: Thanks for all the information!! 13:00:14 From Karen Neary to Everyone: Happy birthday, Matt, and thank you, JJ! 13:00:15 From Jillian Brookshire to Everyone: Thank you 13:00:15 From Rupangi Bakshi to Everyone: thank you.
