The University of Roehampton Library invite you to join us for a TeachMeet on Accessibility and Playful Learning on Friday 7th June. The event will run from 1-4pm with an optional tour of our award-winning £35 million library afterwards.

Everyone is welcome to attend regardless of sector, title or role - our TeachMeet is open to anyone interested in the topic. It is also a great opportunity to meet new people, exchange experiences and get advice! 

The concept of accessibility has wide-ranging implications and we welcome any interpretation that considers the needs of diverse audiences. We are calling out for 2 and 7 minute presentations on (but not limited to) the following topics in conjunction with accessibility:

Induction, orientation and playful learning

Engaging and training staff
Online and offline gaming and gamification

We welcome speakers from any background and would particularly encourage BAME, LGBTQ+, and disabled presenters.

We will provide:

Induction loop
Wheelchair friendly access to event space
Microphones
Adjustable lighting
