Subject: call for help : project about library needs of children with disa
bilities
> Dear BADSL members, (and lib-disability members)
>
> I am the student at SJSU working with Lynne Cutler on research into the
> library needs of children with disabilities. I wanted to introduce myself
> to
> you all, and ask for your help.
>
> I am currently looking for research or model questionnaires that could
> inform our methodology and interview tools.
>
> Our draft research question is: "How can Oakland Public Library improve
> its
> services and outreach to children with disabilities ages 5-13?"
>
> Our Objective: To assess children with disabilities' perceptions and needs
> of Oakland Public Library, along with barriers to access, with the
> long-term
> goal of improving services and outreach/publicity.
>
> The research will most likely be conducted through focus groups or
> one-on-one interviews.
>
> There are very few research studies out there on the library needs of
> children with disabilities, and those that exist tend to focus on one
> specific group (i.e., Leong & Higgins, 2002. Public library services for
> young people who use wheelchairs in Singapore). In fact, most articles are
> informal, practice-based advice.
>
> If anything comes to mind, I would appreciate your thoughts.
>
> Of course, any questions or methods we develop will go through an
> accessibility review to assure they accommodate different youths' needs.
>
> Looking forward to our collaboration,
>
