Bring the HathiTrust Digital Library to your academic community with print disabilities through the Accessible Text Request Service (ATRS), a membership benefit with significant returns. ATRS permits eligible users to access the entire HathiTrust collection — including items in copyright — to use with adaptive technologies such as screen readers. In this webinar, colleagues from the University of Iowa and Harvard University libraries will describe their use of the service to support the curricular and research needs of an oft-marginalized group in higher education. HathiTrust staff will be there to answer your questions about how to get started with the service and enhance the value of your library while freeing up staff resources and unnecessary subscriptions.
