AccessFest 2025
 
DELTA’s Accessibility Team, the Office of Information Technology (OIT), the Office of Equal Opportunity (OEO) and the NC State University Libraries are partnering to host AccessFest on Nov. 7 at D.H. Hill Jr. Library. This day-long, drop-in support event is designed to help our instructors make their course materials more accessible. This is not a workshop with formal instruction—it’s a practical, come-and-go opportunity to work on your own materials in a fun and supportive environment.
