The Toolkit for Disability Equity Steering Committee have gathered some useful links for further reading.

  • Haben: The Deafblind Woman Who Conquered Harvard Law, by Haben Girma

    • Haben is an engrossing book with a first-hand account of life with disabilities. Ms Girma describes her education and esteemed career as well as her encounters with ableism. You will come away with a greater understanding of ableism and how to avoid it. You will follow Haben from Eritrea to New Jersey and Alaska and want to join her in the fight for disability justice.

  • W3C’s Guide to Making Events Accessible

    • Practical and insightful, this guide identifies fundamental considerations for coordinating inclusive remote and in-person events. Links to checklists and resources make this a helpful reference source. With people returning to in-person conferences, it is a great time to refresh or update event practices.

Their aim is to develop an inclusive global economy where people with disabilities participate fully and meaningfully. Their website includes a number of global resources aimed at both employers and employees covering hiring, accessible meetings, and a broad range of diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility content.

    • Written for library workers in all types of libraries, this resource introduces potential allies to how to invite and include people with disabilities in their libraries. This resource is authored by UNC-Chapel Hill’s Community Equity, Data and Information Lab (CEDI).
