Project ENABLE (Expanding Nondiscriminatory Access by Librarians Everywhere) has launched a training website, made possible by a Laura Bush 21st Century Librarian grant from the Institute of Museum & Library Services. Librarians and other educators can freely access the self-paced learning modules to improve the library and information services to students with disabilities in their schools and districts.

The training website contains five learning modules, packed with information in a variety of formats. Each module includes content, activities, and assessments that simulate face-to-face workshops of the project. While the target audience is school librarians, the training website is a comprehensive resource for public and academic librarians, general and special educators, administrators, parents, and their communities.
