Librarians and curators increasingly discuss the issue of inclusive exhibitions in order to ensure that people with all abilities have similar learning experiences at exhibitions. Building on the idea of inclusive exhibition and the principles of universal design, this project briefing will discuss the design of an inclusive digital exhibition at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture Media Gallery. The presentation will include a description of the design process, as well as a discussion of the space and technology used to enable inclusion in a digital exhibition in order to enhance the learning experience of all visitors in the Media Gallery space.
