From DISABILITY.GOV-ANNOUNCEMENT Digest for Friday, June 01, 2001 (US Department of Labor):

HAVE A DISABILITY AND WORK CONCERNS?

If you have a disability and you're working or looking for a job, you'll want to take a look at the new ADA guide, available on our website.  The Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) sets guidelines to prevent
discrimination against people with disabilities in the workforce.  This new guide-put together by Social Security, the Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission and the Department of Justice-explains the rights of those with disabilities who are working or trying to get a job.  It even goes into detail about reasonable accommodations, how to request them and what to do if you think your rights under the ADA have been violated.  Packed with great info, it's an easy read.
