Hooray!!! Asterisks * Designating Adult Events!

Asterisks- a small but important move forward in accessibility. Ever since I started posting Kawartha Lakes Library events online, I have been asking City staff to please demarcate Adult Events with an asterisk rather than a different colour or font., or better yet to have them in separate press releases.Why? Well, there are two reasons: First of all, when I received emails from the library showing the adult events in a different colour font, sometimes it did not show as a different colour in my email. Has this happened to you too? Isn't that aggravating? Now imagine what it is like for someone with limited vision- few electronic readers will pick up a change in font, when reading aloud. Did you realise how important it is not to use only font to convey important information? So from sighted and visually impaired people in who are seeking information about City of Kawartha Lakes children's library programming - Thank You!!!
