Hi,
You might want to check the regional ADA training websites: the one I am familiar with is NWADA.org. NWADA may have the links to regional training centers in other parts of the country. I would call the toll-free number and ask them if they know of any training materials specifically aimed at libraries.

Subject: ADA Training Materials Specifically for Library Staff?
Hi Folks,
I've been poking around looking for disability-related training materials
for an upcoming training for our library staff. I've found some books on the
subject, but nothing that really gives an overview of providing quality
public service to library patrons with disabilities. At this point I'd
settle for a pamphlet or guidelines to show folks. Does such a thing exist
before I go ahead and try to create one myself? I've scoured ALA's website,
but found nothing really. I also contacted ALA's Diversity department but
never heard back. Any tips on resources you all can provide would be great.
Tracy
