[Discovery_PVE_Comm] Neurodiversity + Primo VE discussion invitation

[Skaggs, Lindsey]

Hi all,

Earlier this month, Mark Weiler from Wilfrid Laurier University reached out to Allan and me in our capacity as CARLI Discovery Primo VE Committee co-chairs. Mark is the chair of the Primo VE/Alma Accessibility Working Group from the Ontario Council of University Libraries. Their working group is reaching out to other committees, working groups, and interested parties to gather/share information related to accessibility in Primo VE and ultimately work with Ex Libris to remedy issues that have been identified. Mark shared that earlier this year they partnered with the Orbis Cascade Alliance to hold a meeting with Ex Libris product managers regarding accessibility issues related to RapidILL, and they hope to forge similar relationships with other consortia.

They have invited members of our committee to join a discussion about designing web content for neurodiversity and discussing the implications for Primo VE on Feb. 24h at 1:30pm CT. The registration link is available here: https://ocul.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZ0tdeGprT0iHdFepdx66qvT1kiwoTrVlqY-. Mark has asked that we let him know who plans to attend. I plan to join the call, so please let me know if you register and I'll keep Mark informed.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Lindsey
