Does your organisation’s Web site demonstrate best practice in design for visually
impaired people? If so it could win an award from the National Library for the Blind.

The UK’s National Library for the Blind (NLB) will be staging the 2nd Visionary

NLB is calling for nominations of Web sites which demonstrate best practice for 
an Award. Anyone can nominate a Web site, including the owner and designer of the
site as well as site users. You can nominate as many sites as you want, provided
the content of the site is written for a UK-based audience.
