In 2006, the United Nations adopted the“Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities"(CRPD). Taiwan subsequently incorporated the CRPD´s principles into its domestic legislation in 2014, initiating comprehensive legal reforms. The Marrakesh Treaty, which came into force on September 30, 2016, further advanced the right to knowledge for individuals with disabilities, promising significant global impact over the ensuing decade. The National Taiwan Library, designated by the Ministry of Education as the specialized library responsible for implementing the“Regulations on the Utilization of Digital Library Resources for People with Disabilities,"has aligned its practices with international trends and domestic human rights initiatives. This article explores the current practices in the collection and promotion of special library resources, examining the situation from three perspectives: legal frameworks, special needs, and unique resources, while also addressing challenges encountered. The discussion focuses on how access services integrate cross-disciplinary resources to enhance the utilization value of library resources for people with disabilities. The CRPD´s core principle lies in respecting the autonomy of individuals with disabilities as citizens with the right to make choices regarding their own rights. In practice, librarians play the roles of collaborators and facilitators, promoting access to information (library information) for people with disabilities across all age groups. This article provides an overview of the special library resource formats utilized in promotion and their applications, aiming to serve as a reference for those engaged in the provision of special library resources and services for people with disabilities, as well as those involved in promoting reading equality. The following sections briefly describe: (1) The current status of library resource collection for individuals with disabilities; (2) Challenges in meeting demand and promoting library resources; and (3) Integrating cross-domain resources to enhance the accessibility of library materials for individuals with disabilities. |
