[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Additions to Ravelry advanced search

[Bernice Bird]

That's fantastic. I prefer braille patterns. Pater is best, but my braille
note is okay also. I wonder if Krafters Korner members contacted them about
accessibility? That would be fantastic if the changes happened as a direct
result of our members advocating for change.

Ravelry says they have added new options to advanced search, which I've
pasted below my signature.

We added new searchable attributes to the database, which can be found
within the pattern instructions folder in our 

Advanced Search:

 

list of 4 items

. digital audio (for patterns available in digital audio format)

. digital braille (for patterns available in digital braille format)

. press braille (for patterns with hard copies available in braille format)

. screen reader access (for patterns that have been reviewed and tested to
work with a screen reader)

list end

 

Designers and publishers, if you are interested in making your patterns
available in these formats, please see the informative page on 

Print and Screen Reader Accessibility

maintained by the Accessible Patterns (Designers and Makers) group.
