Emily Shuman and Marilyn Bennett

This training introduces the core requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and how they apply to public libraries.
Emily Shuman leads the Rocky Mountain ADA Center, overseeing strategy, operations, and a six-state service region. Since joining the Center in 2018, she has become a trusted consultant on the Americans with Disabilities Act, known for her clear, compelling education on complex ADA issues. Drawing on her lived experience with non-apparent disabilities, Emily brings both insight and leadership to the national accessibility landscape.

Marilyn Bennett is the Outreach and Digital Resources Librarian for the Montana State Library. As a part of her duties, she manages the Montana State Library Talking Books program, which is a library service for the blind and print disabled.
