I am looking for interview participants for my doctoral research about how disabled readers access books. Participants need to be 18+, live in Canada, and have a print disability. This research has been approved by University of Toronto's ethics committee.

I like walking on the streets while traveling abroad. In Toronto, I see “Push to Open” buttons everywhere. This one is at a Starbucks. I came up with a question. Why most of the doors are not sliding doors in the first place? I’m just wondering. Thoughts? #a11yTO #a11yTOconf

One of my routines when traveling abroad, especially U.S and Toronto, is to turn closed captions on when watching TV in my hotel room. English captions also benefit non-native speakers like me. Looks like most of the CMs also have captions. #a11y #a11yTO #a11yTOconf #caption

An example of color contrast issue. In my hotel room, there are three bottles on the wall in the shower booth. Same shape, same colors. Colored text are on the bottles. ou tell me which bottle is what? #a11y #a11yTO #a11yTOconf
