The Ocean State Center for Independent Living (OSCIL), with locations in Warwick and Pawtucket, has been operating for over 30 years providing services for people with disabilities to address goals for increased independence. The mission of OSCIL is “to enhance, through self-direction, the quality of life for persons with disability and to promote integration into the community.”

Join OSCIL, Executive Director, Lorna Ricci in this inter-active session to learn how to communicate more effectively with your blind, vision impaired, deaf, hearing impaired and/or physically disabled library patrons so that they will be comfortable and confident in your ability to assist them in your library.

This would be very useful for frontline staff in your library.  All staff and GSLIS students are welcome.

Note Change: The program will end by 11:30 am
