Workshop Presenter’s Guide (SPPD Accessibility Toolkit 2014)

Description

The Services to People with Print Disabilities Working Group (part of the Accessibility Interest Group of the BC Library Association) applied for and received a grant from the Vancouver Foundation to produce a Disability Awareness Toolkit for libraries. The Toolkit is aimed at assisting library staff in providing services to patrons with any kind of disability.
This portion of the toolkit is a guide for anyone presenting an in-person workshop (estimate 3.5 hours minimum), complete with activities, handouts, and a Powerpoint presentation. A Presenter’s Reference Guide and Webinar Presenter’s Guide are also available from the Toolshed.
