A User Group has been created to take the Dooks for All Scotland Database forward and the first meeting was hosted by LTS on 24th June. Staff involved in providing books in accessible formats from 5 local authorities met along with Kim Walker (RNIB), Gayle Monteith, Maggie Smith and Jennifer MacDougall (LTS) and Paul and Stuart from CALL. The group discussed how accessible copies are currently provided and how they could be shared more effectively via the Books for All Scotland Database. Find out more about the Database and user group on the Books for All website.
Update: 13th September 09
The next meeting of the group will be on September 29 and 30th, when CALL will be running a two-day course on making books and resources in accessible formats. LTS are funding the course which will take place at Stirling Management Centre.
