| contents | Web Accessibility Knowledge and Skills for Non-Web Library Staff McHale, Nina Accessibility (for Disabled) Electronic Libraries Librarians Library Services Web Sites Compliance (Legal) Why do librarians and library staff other than Web librarians and developers need to know about accessibility? Web services staff do not--or should not--operate in isolation from the rest of the library staff. It is important to consider what areas of online accessibility are applicable to other areas of library work and to colleagues' regular job duties. In this article, the author examines how Web librarians can educate and train their colleagues about Web accessibility, particularly with regard to content creation, resource selection, and achieving administrative buy-in and support. (Contains 5 figures.) |
