Providing online access to a database of 200 trainers, auditors and consultants specialising in disability issues is the latest step towards reducing access barriers in museums, archives and libraries by Resource. The database designed and built by Resource in partnership with the nine Regional Agencies, is the first online service of its kind for the cultural sector. The database is rich in information to help museums, archives and libraries to find support and advice on all disability issues; all available at the touch of a button. Want to find a consultant who specialises in deafness awareness training? Locate someone who works close to your institution or who specialises in academic libraries or can do a DDA audit? All such questions can be answered by the disability database. Marcus Weisen, Resource's Disability Officer, said: 'In the past databases of disability trainers, auditors and consultants in the cultural sector were merely address lists and they were not available on the web. With this new system, we can allow users to browse categorised listings to find the best match for their needs. This unique database is set to stay and grow. We will be working closely with the Regional Agencies as well as disability organisations to promote it, update it and expand it.' The database has been developed in response to the need expressed by the museums, archives and libraries who took part in Resource's national Survey of provision for disabled users in museums, archives and libraries (2001). Many expressed difficulty in gaining access to disability trainers, auditors and consultants. Museums, archives and libraries who commission audits, training and consultancy work will also find guidance about the range of services on offer and developing a brief in the Resource Disability Portfolio Guides Training for Equality and Audits. The disability database is part of Resource Disability Action Plan, which includes the Disability Portfolio and the self-assessment Disability Toolkit for museums, archives and libraries. The disability database is available on the Resource website at: www.resource.gov.uk
