Universal Design - It's Not Only About Accessibility Online
In this webinar, we will discuss what Universal Design (UD) is, and what it entails. UD is often considered synonymous with accessibility, but in reality, there's a lot more to UD. Come learn about accessibility, DEI, and more, and how these come together to make UD the most effective and proactive response possible to the needs of our patrons and communities.
