Date: Wednesday, March 24, 2021

All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11 am Pacific, noon
Mountain, 1 pm Central, and 2 pm Eastern time.



Description: So much of the library information and service we provide is
online, and making our digital content accessible helps everyone in our
community succeed. Following accessibility best practices not only improves
the library experience, it also promotes diversity and inclusion by

your website, LibGuides, Word docs, PDFs, and more. Finally, leave with
tools and actionable tips for how to help make your library services and
digital content more accessible and inclusive.
