Autism Materials Library
Borrow practical materials for teaching, communication and daily participation.
HAP’s physical lending library is separate from the online Knowledge & Learning Hub. Families and professionals can ask about hands-on items, while videos and digital resources remain available through the Learning Hub.
HAP’s current public library page describes more than 1,000 physical materials. Contact the library team to confirm current availability and borrowing terms.
Flashcards, objects, toys, books and teaching materials support communication, learning, movement, daily living and vocational development. Ask the library team what is currently available.
