IDEAS (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility Solutions) in the Library

On-Demand
Webinar
Learn about universal design in communication, programming, services, and marketing to enhance access and accessibility.

Libraries have an opportunity—and a responsibility—to be welcoming, inclusive, and accessible to everyone in their communities. Through principles of universal design and Universal Design for Learning (UDL), libraries can create and enhance access and accessibility for all patrons, including the one in four Americans who are labeled as having disabilities.

In this on-demand webinar, Dr. Clayton Copeland provides a framework to bring IDEAS (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility Solutions) to libraries and to the communities they serve. Learn about the foundations of accessibility and universal design principles in communication, programming, services, and marketing.
