White Paper on Discoverability, Including Accessibility

  • 1.  White Paper on Discoverability, Including Accessibility

    Posted Feb 09, 2015 07:14 PM
    SAGE put out a white paper on discovery of scholarly content in academic libraries. There are interesting questions and findings on accessibility on pp. 8-9. Although it was a small study, about 23% of respondents indicated that their libraries required compliance with accessibility standards for licenses and 44% did not know.

    As an aside, there was an in-booth presentation and discussion of the results at Midwinter.


    Regards,
