Join hosts Amanda McNew and Shannah Hayley for a heartfelt and practical conversation about Plano Public Libraries' adapted book collection and adaptive programs.

You'll hear how the adapted collection got started, what makes these books durable and engaging, and why accessibility in libraries goes beyond getting through the front door.
