Call for papers from public libraries
*Partnerships for print disabled people: publishers and
public libraries*
*IFLA Libraries for the Blind Section conference,
Belgium/Netherlands,
17-20 August 2009*
This conference will highlight the importance of
delivering library
services for print disabled people and show you how to
improve your
services through co-operation and partnership. On the
second full day
of the conference, we will focus on public libraries and
plan to feature
many short examples of best practice in supporting print
disabled people.
Have you developed and delivered an innovative service
for blind,
partially sighted, dyslexic or other print disabled
people? Why did you
do it? What was different about it? Who was involved?
What happened?
Could you inform and inspire an international audience in
just 15 minutes?
If you're interested in participating in this session,
please e-mail a
summary of your project, in English, answering the
questions above in
max. 300 words, to Helen Brazier
[log in to unmask]
<mailto:[log in to unmask]> by 30 October
2008. Please supply
your name, contact details and brief credentials.
Proposals will be evaluated by the conference steering
group and
successful applicants will be informed by 31 December
2008. There will
also be opportunities to participate in workshops and a
poster exhibition.
Regrettably we cannot offer to pay expenses although
there are usually
some grants available to support delegates from
developing countries
