In this session, presenters will provide learning and outcomes from the two-year ARL-CARL Marrakesh Treaty Implementation project, such as improved discovery of accessible works through MARC metadata enhancement, system prototyping with participating members’ Library Services Platforms, the legal issues of lending across borders, needs and preferences of beneficiary communities, and conversations with standards bodies and publishers to enhance the quality of EPUB works.
