I'm angry about this and want to shout, but I don't know very many folks who care to hear me shout about accessibility IRL. So I'm shouting on social media. We don't know the outcome, but I'm still shouty. So.

My colleagues at ACRLog wrote short tributes to the life and work of Fobazi Ettarh @fobettarh.bsky.social. I wrote about her work on disability, which I think deserves more recognition. acrlog.org/2026/03/04/t...
Thanks @ezerrenner.bsky.social for coordinating. #CripLib #VocationalAwe

I'd love to hear more about how #CripLib folks do this, because that's where it's difficult for me with energy, focus, and pain taking away from that depth sometimes.

if you haven't read @Eula Biss's "The Pain Scale," which 1st appeared in Seneca Review, you should. As someone with a chronic pain condition, it was one of the 1st times I read something & felt understood. www.snreview.org/biss.pdf

If you aren't sure what's going on with vendor communication and e-resource accessibility for ADA Title II, my colleagues and I recently hosted an Core e-Forum on that very topic! My summary is now available on Core News: alacorenews.org/2025/10/21/s...
#CripLib #EResources #Libraries📜 📚
What I've been hearing is that especially European vendors and publishers are honestly a lot less worried about the ADA and more concerned about EAA (European Accessibility Act) commission.europa.eu/strategy-and... which is more stringent. We should be good if they adhere to that. #a11y #CripLib
Acq/ER folks, have you heard anything about how publishers are going to make journal articles and ebooks compliant with WCAG 2.1 AA level? #CripLib #libraries
