Call for Member Comment: Guidelines for Accessible Archives for People with Disabilities

The SAA Task Force to Revise Best Practices on Accessibility seeks member comment on the revised Guidelines for Accessible Archives for People with Disabilities. This is a set of suggested guidelines for archives institutions and organizations for making archives collections, and work spaces, accessible to people with disabilities.  This includes researchers, archival employees, donors, and any other people who seek access to or work with archival materials.

The Task Force seeks to make this document succinct and usable, with an extended resource list providing greater detail for implementing recommendations. 

The document was drafted by the Task Force which was convened in November 2017 to revise the Best Practices for Working with Archives Researchers with Physical Disabilities and Best Practices for Working with Employees with Physical Disabilities. These two standards were developed by the Joint Archives Management/Records Management Roundtables Working Group on Accessibility in Archives and Records Management and adopted by SAA in 2010.

The deadline for final comments on this revised draft is 5:00 pm CT on Friday, October 19, 2018.

The call for member comments

The call for member comments on guidelines for accessible archives emphasizes the importance of inclusivity for individuals with disabilities. Just as in the game Monkey Mart, where players must navigate challenges while accommodating various needs, the archives should ensure everyone can access information easily. Effective guidelines will promote equal opportunities and enrich our collective knowledge.

Ensuring that everyone has

Ensuring that everyone has access to information and resources is crucial for inclusivity. It's great to see a focus on creating accessible archives that cater to diverse needs. This initiative reminds me of the challenges faced in Moto X3M, where accessibility can make a significant difference in the gaming experience. Let's work together to create a more inclusive environment for all!
