Hello again!
My name is Trisha and I use she/her pronouns. I am an eLearning Librarian at Southern New Hampshire University and have been there for about 8 years. As one of the largest education providers, we work with a large number of students that have disabilities and struggle to use our digital content both in the LMS and within library databases and systems. This has spurred me to learn everything that I can about accessibility, disability, user experience, UDL and more so that I can be an ally and advocate within my library and institution. I've recently acquired my IAAP CPACC or certified professional in accessibililty core compenctencies and am leading a cross departmental working group focused on providing accessibilty training at SNHU.
I look forward to connecting with you all!
Best,
Trisha

Subject: Welcome New and Established UAIG Members!
Good morning and Happy Friday!
Anaya and I would like to welcome all our new and established members of the Universal Accessibilty Interest Group. We are excited to start off a new year and to serve the accessibility needs of our colleagues. Some initial ideas we have include monthly engagement questions and sharing via the discussion board, invited speakers and more. As we start the new cycle, if any new members would like to introduce themselves and share a little bit about what you are doing at your institutions, that would be great! Anaya and I will kick that off.
As always, please do not hesitate to use this space to lean into the expertise of other librarians. We are all in this together working to ensure equity of access for our users...and our collective efforts and voices are always stronger together.
Our best,
Trisha & Anaya
