Keys to eAccessibility Implementation:
Understanding the Modern Digital Landscape
A Library 2.0 AI Webinar with Sonya Schryer Norris

OVERVIEW: 

Reading about eAccessibility requirements can be dry work. eAccessibility implementation can feel burdensome or overwhelming, especially at first. It doesn’t have to be. There are three key areas to focus on and Sonya Schryer Norris teaches these to library staff in this 90-minute webinar. After the presentation, she shares online courses she's written for each of these key areas with course participants at no additional charge. You can practice the skills you’ve learned and refresh your memory about webinar content whenever you'd like.

Content authors who are not website administrators play a big role in ADA compliance. This webinar shows both groups how screen reading software interprets digital material for users. You’ll hear directly from four screen reader users, including one librarian. They talk about which aspects of eAccessibility impact them the most and what it's like for them to surf the Internet. They also talk about how DEIA functions for visually impaired users on the web.

As a part of this presentation, you will be able to compare your library to 620+ other mainly public libraries on web accessibility success indicators. Learn about the supports a library needs to create and maintain an accessible digital footprint. Bring eAccessibility full circle for your library in this highly interactive webinar.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

Learners will be able to:

• Identify eAccessibility success indicators in public libraries
• Summarize three key skills that build an accessible digital footprint

The recording and presentation slides will be available to all who register.
