WEB
ACCESSIBILITY WITH COLLEEN VAN LENT
TUES 2/18 4PM EASTERN
Next week, we're delighted to welcome Colleen Van Lent to talk about the nuts
and bolts of having accessible web content for your library. As our nation
ages, accessibility isn't just for those with vision or hearing impairments --
more people than ever are eager for Web content that they can have read aloud
or otherwise made easier for them. Colleen is a favorite instructor at the U-M
School of Information and has tens of thousands of students via her Coursera
Web Design for Everybody workshops. She is also the author or co-author of books for youth on
web design and the new Scratch 3.0.
DESIGN THINKING WITH MEGA SUBRAMAMIAN
TUES 3/10 4PM EASTERN
Mega Subramamian of the University of Maryland iSchool has her finger on the
pulse of library innovation and knows how to make theory accessible. She'll be
talking about design thinking, a series of activities and thinking strategies
that you can apply in your library makerspace work or in solving real-world
challenges in your library.
We’re grateful to the Library of Michigan and the Institute of Museum and Library Services for making this series possible.
Hope to see you there. If you’re interested but cannot make the live presentation, we will send a link to the archived session to all registrants.
