During his welcome speech\u00a0Luis Gonz\u00e1lez expressed his intention that this Aldus Up activity would be useful to encourage the Spanish publishing houses to be more ambitious to do real efforts to prepare themselves to be ready for the new European\u00a0regulation that will be put in place in 2025 \u00abbecause my concern is that our publishing industry maybe yet is not already aware of the urgency and the importance of this issue\u00bb as he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Elisa Molinari, Project Manager in Fondatzione LIA, took the floor and explained the general guidelines of Fondazione LIA and then introduced Antonino Cotroneo, who started sharing his personal experience as a visually\u00a0impaired and heavy reader person: \u00abSo a big revolution to me was the digital books. When digital books appear on the market why? Because I took some measures when I was reading a printed book with the electronic magnifier and I discovered that I was reading about six or eight pages per hour, so can you imagine this? Very few pages so why did I take this measure? Because I wanted to read many, many books. But I discovered that I could not read how many books I wanted. So I tried to ask myself why I&#8217;m not able to read how many books I want. This measure was one of the reasons but at that time I didn&#8217;t have another solution because I didn&#8217;t have digital books at that time. Later I discovered digital books when the iPad appeared on the market and there was a bigger revolution because I could increase the characters and customize the book to my personal needs even using a vocal synthesizer or braille display\u00bb.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can follow in this video the interesting hands on presentation of the EdrLab tool for accessibility by Cotroneo.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After that presentation, Gregorio Pellegrino shared two remarks about the consequences of this strategy. The first one was on \u00abaccountability\u00bb: \u00abSo if you&#8217;re not familiar with accessibility, don&#8217;t be frightened, don&#8217;t run away. You do not have to take care of everything. Assistive technologies are not up to publishers; For example, if you&#8217;re a distributor, you are not up to producing an accessible file, but for sure we will have time to explain what everyone has to do in what we like to call the accessible digital publishing ecosystem\u00bb and the second comment was that they \u00abwanted to highlight is how important accessibility metadata are throughout the value chain\u00bb.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Antonino Cotroneo has been working since 2014with Fondazione LIA where he takes part in training, testing and consultancy activities in the field of accessible digital publishing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He has a background in music, which he achieved by studying piano and composition in Italy and at the \u00abMozartheum\u00bb in Salzburg. He is also a computer scientist, enhancing the use of technologies in order to integrate them into the study and life paths of children and adults with visual impairments. He currently also works as a Digital Accessibility tester and advisor for Gucci.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Elisa Molinari worked at the Italian Publishers Association, taking part at national and European projects devoted to digital publishing. Since 2013 she has been working with Fondazione LIA where she is responsible of events, training activities and projects aimed at spreading the culture of accessibility. On behalf of LIA she participates to the Accessibility Task Force of the Federation of European Publishers and to Publishing Accessibility Action Group of the Publisher Association.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gregorio Pellegrino is computer engineer and has a strong knowledge in the digital publishing field, new media with particular attention to accessibility for visually impaired people. He is a consultant in these areas for publishing companies (especially regarding formats, international standards and authoring platforms). He is the technical manager of Fondazione LIA where he coordinates consulting and training activities for national and international organisations who want to change their production processes in order to embrace accessibility. He is involved in international working-group devoted to accessibility of publications and standard formats.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-4o1ugh-d01cb9cabd2783b284be252c2a8ad6da\">\n.flex_cell.av-4o1ugh-d01cb9cabd2783b284be252c2a8ad6da{\nvertical-align:top;\n}\n.responsive #top #wrap_all .flex_cell.av-4o1ugh-d01cb9cabd2783b284be252c2a8ad6da{\npadding:30px 30px 30px 30px !important;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div class='flex_cell av-4o1ugh-d01cb9cabd2783b284be252c2a8ad6da av-gridrow-cell av_one_fifth no_margin  avia-builder-el-6  el_after_av_cell_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-last  content-align-top'  ><div class='flex_cell_inner'><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id='after_grid_row_1'  class='main_color av_default_container_wrap container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-1778'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'><div  class='av-social-sharing-box av-2l40jl-fc657a5d4109edb166beabe7d2d69df2 av-social-sharing-box-default  avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_layout_row  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  av-social-sharing-box-fullwidth'><div class=\"av-share-box\"><h5 class='av-share-link-description av-no-toc '>Compartir esta entrada<\/h5><ul class=\"av-share-box-list noLightbox\"><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-facebook avia_social_iconfont' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Compartir en Facebook\" href='https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/renodo.org\/en\/2023\/08\/13\/do-you-want-to-understand-what-is-an-accessible-reading-experience-watch-this-accessibility-camp-presentation\/&#038;t=DO%20YOU%20WANT%20TO%20UNDERSTAND%20WHAT%20IS%20AN%20ACCESSIBLE%20READING%20EXPERIENCE%3F%3A%20WATCH%20THIS%20ACCESSIBILITY%20CAMP%20PRESENTATION' data-av_icon='\ue8f3' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'  title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Compartir en Facebook'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Compartir en Facebook<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-twitter avia_social_iconfont' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Compartir en X\" href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=DO%20YOU%20WANT%20TO%20UNDERSTAND%20WHAT%20IS%20AN%20ACCESSIBLE%20READING%20EXPERIENCE%3F%3A%20WATCH%20THIS%20ACCESSIBILITY%20CAMP%20PRESENTATION&#038;url=https:\/\/renodo.org\/en\/?p=1778' data-av_icon='\ue932' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'  title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Compartir en X'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Compartir en X<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-mail avia_social_iconfont' ><a  aria-label=\"Compartir por correo\" href='mailto:?subject=DO%20YOU%20WANT%20TO%20UNDERSTAND%20WHAT%20IS%20AN%20ACCESSIBLE%20READING%20EXPERIENCE%3F%3A%20WATCH%20THIS%20ACCESSIBILITY%20CAMP%20PRESENTATION&#038;body=https:\/\/renodo.org\/en\/2023\/08\/13\/do-you-want-to-understand-what-is-an-accessible-reading-experience-watch-this-accessibility-camp-presentation\/' data-av_icon='\ue805' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'  title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Compartir por correo'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Compartir por correo<\/span><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1781,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"video","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,4,21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1778","post","type-post","status-publish","format-video","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-home","category-ideas","category-ideasen","post_format-post-format-video"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/renodo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1778","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/renodo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/renodo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renodo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renodo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1778"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/renodo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1778\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1782,"href":"https:\/\/renodo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1778\/revisions\/1782"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renodo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1781"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/renodo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1778"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renodo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1778"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renodo.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1778"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
