You are warmly invited to arXiv’s second Accessibility Forum, a conference for the entire scientific community focused on making research more accessible. Seven individual sessions, featuring diverse panelists from many scientific fields, will take place on multiple days from Tuesday, September 3, to Friday, September 13. The Forum is fully remote, free, and open to all.
Accessibility means *access regardless of disability*, and only when research is fully accessible can we truly call it open science. Learn, share, and engage with diversity researchers and experts from many fields whose work is all converging on accessible science.
The keynote session, “Universal Designs for Research”, might be of particular interest to librarians. One of the speakers is Dr. Ashely Shew, author of Against Technoableism.
