| Abstract: | The article focuses on enhancing accessibility in library instruction and research consultations, particularly through the use of live demonstrations and screenshots. It discusses the challenges librarians face in understanding students' accessibility needs due to the typically brief nature of their interactions. The authors initiated a project to explore best practices for making these instructional methods more accessible, drawing on frameworks like Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and Universal Design for Instruction (UDI). Recommendations include using multiple modes of representation, ensuring perceptible information, and soliciting feedback from students to improve accessibility in both classroom and consultation settings.
