Does your library technology accommodate users with disabilities? From public access technology to online resources, libraries must be sensitive to the needs of all users, especially those who may not be able to fully access information using traditional technology.
Join us for this free TechSoup for Libraries webinar [2] to learn what libraries have done to create a more inclusive technology environment.
Assistive technology is the software, peripherals, and specialized devices that help connect disabled individuals with information and communication.
Hear how these libraries have played a key role in allowing disabled patrons to fully participate in and benefit from digital technology.
* Nancy Murillo is Director of the Pittsburg – Camp County Library (TX),
where she recently implemented a new all-in-one assistive technology
computer in partnership with the East Texas Lighthouse for the Blind.
* Clay Ragan is the Director of the Computer Training Bridge at the Forsyth
County Library (NC), where they have assistive technology stations located
in branches throughout the system.
This webinar will be recorded and archived on the TechSoup for Libraries website. Please register to receive an email notification when the archive is available.
