Download or read book Libraries for the Blind in the Information Age written by International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions, The Hague (Netherlands). and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visually impaired people have the same information needs as sighted people. Just as sighted people might read a newspaper, listen to a CD or download electronic information from the Internet, visually impaired people also want access to relevant information in their chosen accessible format. Developing an efficient library service for print-disabled people is extremely important, because there are significantly fewer books available commercially in accessible formats compared to what is published in print for the general public. The need to build collections in alternative formats and make them available for readers who are unable to browse shelves makes it necessary to develop special services. The purpose of these guidelines is to provide libraries, governments, and other stakeholders with a framework for developing library services for people who are print disabled. Where appropriate the guidelines are supported by examples from many countries around the world. For purposes of these guidelines, print disabled will be used to describe those who are unable to read print due to blindness, low vision, a learning disability, or a physical disability. Following the preface, the 10 chapters contained herein are: (1) Introduction; (2) History; (3) The Framework for Service; (4) Customer Care: Meeting User Needs; (5) Cooperation and Networking; (6) Collection Development; (7) Access to Service and Collections; (8) Production of Alternative Formats; (9) Management and Marketing; and (10) Quality Assurance. Appended are: (1) IFLA Declaration of Fundamental Right to Access and Express Information; and (2) Guidelines for Library Service to Braille Users. This volume also includes a glossary.

Download or read book Disabilities and the Library written by Clayton A. Copeland and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2022-11-11 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Librarians need to understand the needs and abilities of differently abled patrons, and anyone responsible for hiring and managing librarians must know how to provide an equitable environment. This book serves as an educational resource for both groups. Understanding the needs and abilities of patrons who are differently abled increases librarians' ability to serve them from childhood through adulthood. While some librarians are fortunate to have had coursework to help them understand the needs and abilities of the differently abled, many have had little experience working with this diverse group. In addition, many persons who are differently abled are-or would like to become-librarians. Disabilities and the Library helps readers understand the challenges faced by people who are differently abled, both as patrons and as information professionals. Readers will learn to assess their library's physical facilities, programming, staff, and continuing education to ensure that their libraries are prepared to include people of all abilities. Inclusive programming and collection development suggestions will help librarians to meet the needs of patrons and colleagues with mobility and dexterity problems, learning differences, hearing and vision limitations, sensory and cognitive challenges, autism, and more. Additional information is included about assistive and adaptive technologies and web accessibility. Librarians will value this accessible and important book as they strive for equity and inclusivity.
