Free Webinar: Word to DAISY Add-in Thur. June 30
Times: 19.00 UK, 20.00 Central European Time, 21.00 Turkey...
Presenters: Professor Mireia Ribera, PhD in Library Science from
Universitat de Barcelona
Afra Pascual, BS in Computer Human Interaction from Universitat de
Lleida
DAISY is gaining adoption at a fast pace, it is part of Epub standard,
NIMAS simplified version is compulsory for textbooks in USA, and it is
useful for blind people, people with low vision, people with dyslexia,
among other users as language learners or frequent mobile users.
Everyone can make DAISY now, as Microsoft and Daisy Consortium are
offering a free tool, the DAISY Word Add-in, to create DAISY books
(text or text plus audio) from MS Word documents. In this seminar we
will review the possibilities and limits of the DAISY Word Add-in, we
will set the minimum infrastructure you need to make it work, and
we'll comment on aspects you must be aware to avoid common pitfalls.
Register for the Word to DAISY Webinar on http://easi.cc/clinic.htm
Other free webinars are planned for later in the summer.
Best wishes,
Claire Ozel
