商品簡介
In this step-by-step guide for library managers and information technologists, Vincent (Center for Accessible Technology) presents a process for getting the most from assistive technology in the library, accompanied by real life examples and a wealth of policy templates, checklists, and evaluation worksheets. One section of the book describes solutions to specific barriers related to monitors, keyboards, the mouse, the workstation, and peripherals. For each, the book discusses operating system and application solutions, third-party solutions, and creative solutions. Other topics explored include budgeting, communicating with IT staff, and hardware and software compatibility issues. Appendices list manufacturers, vendors, and web sites for learning more about accessibility apps for mobile devices. An extensive bibliography lists print and web resources in multiple categories, and a companion blog includes links and information about new accessibility programs, apps, legislation, and assistive technology.
