PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
"Jane Vincent is assistive technology manager for the University of Michigan, providing direct assistance to individuals, web accessibility evaluations, and other activities relevant to electronic accessibility and universal access. She has provided consultation to libraries on accessible technology acquisition and use, and has evaluated website accessibility for businesses and organizations. Jane has presented at conferences of the American Library Association, the Public Library Association, and the California Library Association, as well as at multiple conferences on assistive technology, aging, and usability. She is author of Implementing Cost-Effective Assistive Computer Technology and A Guide for Digital Assistive Technology Provision to Postsecondary Students, and her writings have been published in Library Hi-Tech News, JASIS, Communication Disorders Quarterly, MacWorld, and the blog ""Access on Main Street."""
Starting from the point of view that disabled people are the experts, Jane Vincent has written a readable and comprehensive guide to library accessibility for library directors, department heads, and frontline staff. Her thorough understanding of the subject allows her to extend traditional library standards to encompass accessibility. Clear examples of disabled people navigating library services, followed by in-depth interviews with library staff, many of them disabled, bring home the message that accessible libraries are necessary and doable. This will be one of my go-to resources.
