Great session on accessibility and inclusion - a topic that needs to be given the investment and focus it deserves in the publishing world - thank you @GadsbyOliver @ways2read and @VPMENON #LBF23.

Q&A - books on Amazon today - how many are actually accessible? Accessibility isn’t binary, kindle platform opens up opportunity for personalisation for the reader but not 100% there yet. #LBF23.

Accessibility in publishing - being able to read in a way that works for the person. Reader first, content second. We all want our content to reach the widest possible audience #LBF23.
