Thank you for your response!
It’s nice to know that libraries are free, nonjudgmental, accessible spaces for neurodivergent individuals to interact with each other. My library also has many neurodivergent patrons visiting the library, it’s always nice to see a familiar face, help them with their questions and provide a safe place for…Read more

You use great examples of how storytelling brings communities together. I touched upon this in one of my posts as well- that libraries act as a sort of campfire around which we congregate to share stories (essentially information).
