[Libs-Or] Sensory hour

[Hearn, Shaun]

Hello,

Corvallis Public wants to offer at least one sensory hour per month. I would like to hear from other libraries who have done similar things. How did you go about it? How did you promote it? How was the response?

We are planning to open an hour early on a Sunday leaving some lights down and using easels in the lobby to let patrons know the entire building is a designated quiet zone for that hour. I would also like to offer some training for staff about Sensory Processing Disorder. If you have done something like this or if you have programmed with sensory challenges in mind, I would love to hear from you.

Thank you,

Shaun
