RE: Captions for text-based videos?

I'd probably add an audio description that reads the text aloud, and have the text available for a transcript (if you can only get it into a transcript by creating captions, then go for captions, too.) The captions aren't totally necessary for HOH/Deaf viewers (unless the text is really hard to read/low-contrast ...

I tried it with some graphic novel pages. It... goes off on a tangent sometimes, depending on what it thinks is happening. With one page, it thought people walking through snow were being attacked by an avalanche (even hallucinated the word across the page) and there was a body in one of the panels. ...

Alex werner-colon and jasmine L Clark at temple university are the people I'd get in touch with. They're both doing a lot of work on XR accessibility. I know Jasmine has published on it a lot. Thanks,D.

Just don't use ChatGPT to develop your resource list/research/lit review. You'll get a bunch of really nicely formatted citations to very FAKE articles and books. Our librarians recently spent hours working with a student to try to find the items they had citations for, before they finally said they ...

You can have the speaker use a microphone. If that's not enough, then maybe have them use a microphone and use Zoom. That way the HOH individuals can open the zoom meeting on their phone and listen there. It'd cut out all the clutter of other voices, and wouldn't cost anything other than headphones/earbuds/etc. ...

Hi Colin, As I recall, in Google Slides, the reading order is set by arranging the objects (text or images) backwards or forwards on the slide. You can test it by tabbing through the slides to see which objects come up first. Anyone correct me if I'm not recalling this right! If they use a singular ...

My favorite is the Ivona voices. Good quality, but high prices. Acapela is pretty good and a little cheaper. It's integrated as a premium option for many TTS apps, and if you have an Android, you can even set it up as the default TTS audio for your phone (I haven't used this option). I do use it with ...

Is there still an archive of emails past for this list? Pre-pandemic there was a similar question and people posted some AWESOME resources and library guides and other ways that Libraries are talking about accessibility features of their databases. Anyway, here's what I've done for our resources so ...
