[Baynet] Infopeople's workshop on Library Accessibility

[Linda Rodenspiel]

Attention, public service staff!  Infopeople is pleased to offer a new
course for anyone who works directly with library users:  Beyond Ramps -
Library Accessibility in the Real World.  True accessibility is more than
just building modifications; we need to realign the way we provide our
services as well.  This workshop will increase your awareness of proven
techniques for serving all of your customers, and prepare you to meet the
special needs of visitors with access challenges in a sensitive and
effective manner.  It will acquaint you with issues affecting people with 
disabilities and will teach effective techniques for providing services to 
them and for working with colleagues with disabilities. Don't miss this 
opportunity to enhance your repertoire of
frontline public service skills.
