Great article but also a great example of Open Access! What is open access? Accessibility that is brought out into the open, captions that are available on default or a transcript that is openly available. As someone with ADP that doesn’t like to listen to content, but rather read it instead, open transcripts are a breath of fresh air. I don’t have to look for it, I don’t have to press any buttons or open a separate webpage for it, it’s readily available underneath the podcast. Open access is for everyone! For example, a mother who is holding their sleeping baby and can’t have the audio turned up- an example of an incidental need for open access. Accessibility out in the open, for everyone, well done! #weheartopenaccess

One comes from Colorado. The other comes from the EU. Read or listen to A11y Insights to learn more about it. https://buff.ly/3XEY04z
