Hosted by the OCUL Accessibility Community, this free online symposium explores critical topics shaping accessibility in the post-secondary library landscape.

Around the world, post-secondary libraries are recognizing accessibility and inclusion of people with disabilities as a shared priority. In Ontario, 2025 was intended to mark a compliance milestone for the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA). However, much work remains to be done.

The Accessibility Symposium 2.0 will feature presentations and discussions that reflect on the progress made over the past 20 years and envision a more ambitious and inclusive future for accessibility in academic libraries.

• Dates and times: June 17, 18 and 19, 2025, 9:30 am-12:30 pm Eastern Time
• Format: Online via Zoom
