Library champions for Disability Is a
new grassroots community of practice form for all information professionals which was
launched in November 2015 in
affiliation with ALISS
http://www.aliss.ac.uk.
We aim to offer librarians,
information professionals from all sectors an informal place to contact, meet and exchange and exchange ideas. Disability is defined broadly to include neurodiversity conditions, mental health issues, physical or intellectual impairment.
We
believe that library users should not
be 'disabled' by technical, environmental or social conditions in libraries and urge all those who support this to join us to improve access for all.
Minutes and slides from the
meetings are now available on a new blog at
http://librarychampionsfordisabilityaccess.blogspot.co.uk/
if you need any further help do let me know
best wishes
Heather Dawson
