MacMillan is an American Sign Language (ASL) interpreter and consultant and has ten years of experience as a librarian, most recently with the Maryland School for the Deaf from 2001 to 2005. She guides library programming personnel through the common pitfalls of new learners of ASL and the background knowledge necessary to introduce ASL in context, and offers practical information on establishing community partnerships, working with interpreters, and marketing programs. The text also includes sample programs for all ages--baby, toddler, preschool, elementary and middle school, and family programs-- annotated bibliographies of ASL resources and materials to use with sign language, games and crafts for ASL programs, a glossary of terms relating to sign language and deafness, and a visual glossary of commonly used storytime signs.
