Notebook authors, I'm thrilled to be able to share recommendations for writing more accessible notebooks! This talk answers questions educators, researchers, and docs writers have been asking me for years.

Currently, @ProjectJupyter Notebooks are not accessible for screen reader users, often keeping #blind folks out of STEM. We presented @JupyterCon on our team's recent work on improving #a11y for HTML notebooks.

back during my GSOC the numpy/matplotib handling of Unicode was severely busted & and I learned this by accident cause I was writing tests w/ Cyrillic characters - the previous tests for Unicode used ASCII characters that had been "encoded" into Unicode.
Excellent reminder from Isabela -- nothing useful is made alone

Slides here from yesterday's SciPy talk on making Jupyter notebooks accessible:
bit.ly/accessible-notebook
As usual, many practices that help disabled users are also better for everyone.
We're still recruiting! If you are interested in helping us learn more about the state of JupyterLab's accessibility, please sign up.
I'm recruiting participants for a JupyterLab #accessibility study! Please check it out and share around.
More info and a sign up link on the @ProjectJupyter Discourse: discourse.jupyter.org/t/part…
And thanks to @DocFast for presenting with me!
Great presentation by @isabelapf2 and T Fast on the github.com/Iota-School/noteb… project (with @psmyth01, J Kotler, and myself) doing user testing to improve the accessibility of Jupyter notebooks at the #dayofaccessibility at @stsci
There are two days left to register for the Day of Accessibility at @SpaceTelescope! It's a jam-packed schedule of experts, and you might get to see me there.✨

Your next Jupyter community call is coming up on February 28 at 8am Pacific. This is a great time to share something in Jupyter's orbit you learned, you made, or that you want to say thanks for!
More info on the Jupyter discourse: discourse.jupyter.org/t/jupy…
We kicked off the Jupyter community call new year with intense demos, exciting discussions, and future-facing questions.
Watch January's community call for yourself here! youtu.be/LjgctsAIubQ
Now's the time to bring out your notebooks! 📒I'll be at this event with a great crew ready to get you learning and hacking on more accessible Jupyter notebook content.
Open to all! Familiarity with notebooks and Markdown is optional but helpful.
