Exchange of Experience: Building accessible training in your department [TG4/Accessible]

Twitter: @cpd25_M25 #cpd25

This is part of a series of online events for M25 Consortium members, aiming to provide a safe and supportive space for staff to meet and share issues and experiences of library work.

Join us for an open discussion group covering the theme of building accessibility. Jessica Wykes and Felicity Crentsil (both Library Services – City, University of London) will provide in insight into setting up training for Library Services on the subject of supporting Visually Impaired People (VIP) and/or blind people.

We hope this session will provide an opportunity for colleagues across the sector to talk about their own accessibility training methods, as well as challenges, successes, and good practices that they’ve put in place. Share your experiences and hear how others have got on.

Join us for an informal sharing of ideas and experiences with supportive colleagues from a variety of library backgrounds. The session will run for an hour, using Zoom. Moderators will be present to help collate ideas which can be shared with all participants.

Moderators:

Martin Edwards, City, University of London

Sally Brock, Kings College London
