Lending Library & Resource Sharing

We operate a member-to-member lending library for books and other resource materials relating to autism.  We work to facilitate any kind of resource sharing we can among our members.  The following is the current content of our library as of 5/6/2009.  These materials are available for checkout at our monthly meetings, or between meetings by special arrangement.  Email HopkinsFACT@comcast.net or call Craig Fobes at 952-261-9454 (cell) to obtain or return materials between meetings.  You must have a current school year FACT registration on file to check out library materials.

 

We also have a special collection of music therapy CDs available for loan -- the type that are used under professional guidance. These are fairly expensive to buy.  If you are doing professionally guided music therapy, contact us for details.  FACT may require a reasonable deposit that will be refunded on return of the CD.
