You probably know, and have already experienced, that communication can vastly differ between neurodivergent and neurotypical people? đź§ 

In fact, communication across neurotypes can be considered a form of cross-cultural communication.

In the next social communication workshop, we're going to talk about the differences in these communication styles, and how you can participate fully in conversation even if there's differences.

Today, in recognition of Freedom to Read Week (February 22 – 28), Calgary Public Library CEO Sarah Meilleur presented Mayor Jeromy "Pathfinder" Farkas and Council with two books: the frequently challenged novel "The Giver" by Lois Lowry and "On Book Banning: Or How the New Censorship Consensus Trivializes Art and Undermines Democracy" by Ira Wells.

"The Giver" has faced challenges for its themes, including depictions of euthanasia and questions around belief systems. At its heart, the novel explores self-discovery, choice, and the freedom to shape one’s own future.

"On Book Banning: Or How the New Censorship Consensus Trivializes Art and Undermines Democracy" offers insight into how and why books are challenged, the broader conversations around censorship, and the impact these actions can have.

Calgary Public Library is proud to provide a space for open discussion, encourage diverse perspectives, and promote continuous learning in our community.
