[Discovery_PVE_Comm] FW: Accessibility Bridge: Accessibility Metadata and Discovery

[Skaggs, Lindsey]

Hi all,

I'm forwarding the below invitation from Mark Weiler, who is part of Ontario Council of University Libraries' Collaborative Futures Accessibility Group. The University of Montana has implemented an "accessibility information" facet that looks very interesting (see it in action here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://trails-um.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/discovery/search?query=any,contains,history&tab=ML_Payne_Everything&search_scope=OneSearch_Everything&vid=01TRAILS_UM:01TRAILS_UM&offset=0__;!!DZ3fjg!5AcnHsBJo4kTDUKK_n6LOTKp6sNAj4ZmxYgtIdNfGw5Rz_fXz1b-BxSD2qT-RmCb9bM0foE6rJBX62nAgpa5Ua4mGdwzVPhzIso$ ). Please register if you are interested-- I plan on joining and will also report back.

Kind regards,
Lindsey

Hi Lindsey, Berry

The Collaborative Futures Accessibility Working Group (which is a part of the Ontario Council of University Libraries) invites you to the next Accessibility Bridge on April 21st.
It would be great if you and accessibility champions in CARLI joined us.

Librarians from the University of Montana will join us to share their "Accessibility Information" facet project.

At the accessibility bridge, we meet colleagues from other libraries and consortia around the world who are also marching towards a Primo VE/Alma that has features needed by disabled users.
