"Untypical" by Pete Wharmby is my second recommended book for 2023. It offers insights into creating inclusive environments in our workplaces and classrooms. The book is an open, frank discussion regarding the autism spectrum and offers an introspective study of autistic life from someone who understands. Reading this book prompted a personal redesign of my instructional practice, how I address student needs, and noted a need for adjustments in policies and procedures, expanding inclusive practices. #librarymanagement #autismsupport #inclusivedesign
