Multiple members of the consortium were recognized for exceptional Enterprise design through the Simcoe County Libraries for Accessibility project. Made possible through the partnership of ten Simcoe County Libraries, The Simcoe County Libraries for Accessibility project is a successful and creative solution for meeting the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) Standards. The project also fulfills the partner libraries’ goal of providing “one place to look”—through enriched library user experiences, user-friendly interfaces, and enhanced online services. “The partner libraries are thrilled to have received this award,” said Gayle Hall, Chief Librarian, County of Simcoe Library Co-operative. “We all worked very hard to ensure that the project provides a cutting-edge solution to meeting the AODA standards and fulfilling the partner libraries’ goal of providing “one place to look.” It is a fiscally responsible answer to the provision of equitable access, enhanced online services and excellent customer service through the utilization of a user-friendly platform.” The Library Co-operative utilizes SirsiDynix Enterprise, which allows each partner library to easily customize its discovery interface—through library branding, tailored designs, and audience-specific profiles—to give its users the Best Library User Experience possible.
