Creating accessible sheet music for individuals using assistive technologies can be a real stumbling block for Disability Specialists more used to providing text files to their students who are blind/low vision. Bring your own laptop and work alongside the presenters in this hands-on workshop. Participants will learn a functional workflow for music remediation using Adobe Acrobat, SharpEye2 Optical Music Recognition program, and the Lime music notation editor to take you from a scanned image of a sheet of music all the way to an accessible .lim file usable by a blind/low vision musician.

No previous experience with music or document remediation is necessary to attend this session, although experienced remediators may benefit from learning a new workflow.
