Mainstreaming Accessibility: A Practical Session for Publishers to Reach More Readers

This year's seminar will be a highly practical session showcasing the latest EPUB3 Accessibility Guidance, with demonstrations showing how publisher's content can be accessed by readers with print impairments using the latest digital reading devices and software, and how building in accessibility can transform reading experiences. There will also be an update on the Accessible Publishing Best Practice Guidelines since they were launched at last year's London Book Fair. This essential annual seminar gives publishers the opportunity to learn about the latest mainstream developments for accessibility and best practice. The seminar will be chaired by Graham Taylor, Director of Educational, Academic and Professional Publishing at the Publishers Association.
