Dear Colleagues,
Please save the date:
Friday, May 11, 2012
10:00am to 4:00pm
SCLS Auditorium and Blue Room
SCLS Outreach Services will be holding SEE FOR YOURSELF 2012: AN ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY AND RESOURCE FAIR FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE BLIND OR
VISUALLY IMPAIRED.
If you have attended the fair in the past, you know that our vendors and exhibitors demonstrate the "latest and greatest" assistive
technology. The demonstrations are useful and informative to both individuals and the libraries, so please make plans to attend.
Those of you who have attended the fair in the past, have stated how helpful it was to see demonstrations of assistive technology
that can make your library more accessible to individuals to people with visual and print disabilities.
We will send out many more announcements, as well as mailings to you and your patrons and fliers that you can hand out at the
library .
Please watch for more information as the date approaches.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me.
Valerie

We would not design a building that did not have a wide enough door for a wheelchair.
Therefore, we should not fill it with products that cannot be used by people with disabilities.
