Social Media and Accessibility

Did you know that making social media content accessible increases “findability” in Google elsewhere? Do you know that we also have a legal obligation to create accessible content? In this session, we’ll explore how different social media companies like Facebook, Instagram, Youtube, X (formerly Twitter), and more support accessibility and the advantages to us for making sure our content is accessible. It is easier than you think!

Presenter: Robin Fay is an Instructor and Metadata Librarian who has worked with academic, public, community college libraries and multistate consortias on cataloging and metadata projects for Orbis Cascade Alliance, the Digital Public Library of America, the University System of Georgia, and SkillsCommon. Her interests are in immersive technologies and the intersection of machine learning, data, and us! Robin is also an avid designer and you can find her on instagram and elsewhere as @georgiawebgurl
