Don’t go back to Rockville

With all career moves it never ever hurts to have some relevant volunteer work under your belt. On the Go Volunteer website there is a (volunteering) opportunity for someone to work in the Braille Production Department of the Information & Library Service of a not-for-profit organisation (I can guess which organisation, but I haven’t had confirmation yet). I sent off an email enquiry last week. Maybe I’ll hear something soon.

I am interested in accessible & adaptive technologies for people of different abilities. If a librarian tries to overcome the barriers between patron and information, then this technology acts in similar way to overcome barriers blocking access to information.
