Description 200-207
The study explores the use of robotic technologies in improving library accessibility for differently-abled individuals,
focusing on visual, hearing, physical, and cognitive disabilities. It emphasizes the importance of inclusive environments and
libraries' role in promoting inclusivity. Robots can assist in language translation, provide real-time updates, and organize
library collections, fostering collaboration and communication among learners. They can also provide accessibility features
like text-to-speech capabilities or tactile interfaces. Libraries can collaborate with disability advocacy organizations and
train staff on disability awareness and inclusive practices to enhance library accessibility and inclusivity. The collaboration
can lead to the implementation of assistive technologies and innovative solutions that cater to the specific needs of
individuals with disabilities. This service can give immense pleasure to a person with disabilities and provide accessibility,
inclusivity for physically handicapped individuals, and full participation.
