TESTLAB — Testing Electronic Systems using Telematics for Library Access for the Blind: a project under the TAP Libraries Programme

Abstract

Even with all the production of alternative format books visually handicapped readers can only access about 1% of everything that is published. The TESTLAB project sets out to test ways in which blind and visually impaired people can have access to catalogue information and documents which can be read by means of the computer. This article describes some of the trials that are taking place across Europe.
