1st post!
This blog is about books and other learning resources in accessible alternative formats, for children with disabilities and additional support needs. You can find out more about Books for All on the CALL Centre web site at www.booksforall.org.uk.
The Books for All initiative developed from a project that I and Dr. Stuart Aitken undertook from September 2006 to March 2007. The main result of the project was a large and hefty tome, which was published on the Scottish Government web site here.
There’s been a lot happening following the publication of the Books for All report in May 2007 and so I thought I’d create a blog to keep track of it. Blogging is new to me; blogs are a social communication tool; and I’m famed for my feeble communication skills, so bear with me as I drag myself into this new world.
