About Round Table

2015 Conference Theme:

“Dynamics of information access- Current and future contexts and designs”
Information Access is important to all people with print disability, and has many dimensions including format (braille, large print, E-text, etc.), facilities (libraries, websites, agencies, educational institutions, local councils) and modes of access (tablet, laptop, refreshable braille). There has been rapid growth and change in the field and the 2015 Conference will explore the efficacy and efficiency of current access provisions and provide an insight into future designs and models. These will be explored through a mix of speakers, panel discussions and workshops.

Conference Aims

  • To share information about the latest developments in provision of accessible information
  • To provide information for people with a print disability
  • To enhance dialogue between users and providers of accessible information
  • To promote and enhance collaborative partnerships and peer support networks
  • To showcase and workshop examples of best practice in the provision of accessible information and technology for children and adults with a print disability
  • To explore person-centred policies, supports and services provided for children and adults with a print disability in work places, schools and educational institutions, and local communities

Conference Delegates

The annual conference attracts delegates from public libraries, government, education, not for profits, and community based organisations and consumers. It is estimated that 80 – 125 delegates per day will be in attendance.

Registering for the Conference

Notice for Jaws screen reading software users
There is a recognised problem between JAWS and Internet Explorer that causes the word “region” to be spoken on each form field, immediately before the field name is spoken (such as First, Last, E-mail etc).  If you find this annoying try setting JAWS Verbosity to “advanced” or use another browser.
