In the January 2022 article of the Graphic Communication Advisors Group (GCAG), Dr. Hal Hinderliter shares research in an article entitled: Accessible Publishing: A Valued Skill for Graphic Communicators.
The article covers transformations in light of modernizations of content creators such as design studios and service providers such as printing companies. It includes changes occurring in non-print services such as websites and email campaigns, and in other interactive media. The article also covers accessibility of services for going from print-to-digital for media, accessible formats, and meeting company expanding needs and capabilities.
Harvey Levenson, Cal Poly Professor Emeritus and coordinator of the GCAG, said: “Hal’s article provides value for our industry’s long-range planning considerations, and could drive decisions on growth for companies of all sizes.”
Hinderliter’s article kicks off the 2022 GCAG (https://hrlevenson.wixsite.com/gcag) series. The full article is available at:
