The Usable and Accessible Library Space
Tuesday, September 20 &Thursday, September 22, 2022, 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm CDT

As librarians, one of our main goals is to connect people with the information that they need. While librarians play a very large part in this process, we must not forget the role our library spaces play in this process. Our libraries should be attractive, yes, but above all, they should be usable and accessible to all patrons. In this course, attendees will identify key barriers to a library's usability through customer service and accessibility lenses. Possible solutions for improving library layout, signage, and services, thus optimizing its usability will be discussed. How to conduct a usability and accessibility audit for library space will be outlined.

Learning Objectives:

  *   Identifying key barriers to a library's usability and accessibility
  *   Developing solutions for improving library spaces
  *   Conducting a usability and accessibility audit for a library
