Department of Education bringing awareness of library services for blind and print disabled persons requirement provision

SF 1703 requires the Minnesota Department of Education to actively promote library services for blind and print disabled residents. The bill mandates the department to develop and maintain an online, fully accessible website with current resources, services, and information about available support. It also obligates the department to consult with state agencies like Employment and Economic Development, Health, and Human Services to coordinate awareness efforts. This amendment to Minnesota Statutes 2024 updates existing requirements for the Department of Education and its advisory committee to enhance accessibility for this community.
