Скачать или смотреть All about print disabilities: CELA eligibility workshop for library staff

Have you ever wondered whether someone was eligible to use CELA’s collection of accessible reading formats? Library staff are essential in helping to make sure that people living in Canada of all abilities get access to reading materials in the formats that they need. Equally important is the crucial role they play in ensuring that use of the CELA collection is restricted to those who have a print disability, which is a learning, physical, or visual disability that prevents someone from reading conventional print.

This workshop will help library staff to better understand eligibility, be confident in explaining it to their patrons and colleagues and increase CELA usage through their library by promoting it to all community members who may be eligible for CELA.
