How do we make accessible research papers a reality? – arXiv blog

Summary:

"When researchers with disabilities, such as blindness or dyslexia, cannot access the research papers in their field, can we really call it “open” science? On April 17th, arXiv will be hosting a half-day online forum for everyone invested in making research outputs accessible to every researcher, regardless of disability. The forum will center the experiences of academic researchers who face barriers to accessing and reading papers, and will be useful for people across the authoring and publishing ecosystem. We hope you will join us. Together, we can chart a path towards fully accessible research papers, and leave with practical next steps for our own organizations...."
