2019年，Goldey-Beacom学院图书馆为第一位100%失明的学生提供服务。为了更熟悉其他学院和大学的无障碍工作，作者编写了一份简短的文献综述，讨论了国家无障碍法规，大学无障碍政策，以及图书馆员对网络可访问性和供应商提供的数据库的审计。为了确定图书馆订阅的工具和服务的可访问性，机构研究与培训办公室主任和图书馆，档案馆和学习中心主任使用WAVE在线可访问性检查器来审计图书馆的主要电子资源：Gale Power Search、ProQuest、Yewno、EBSCO、LibGuides、SpringShare A-Z Database List、JSTOR、Adam Matthew、SAGE Research Methods和Encyclopedia Britannica。WAVE结果表明，在审查的10个电子资源中有9个存在错误，在审计的10个电子资源中有10个存在警报。
Abstract In 2019, the Goldey-Beacom College library served its first 100% blind student. To become more familiar with accessibility efforts at other colleges and universities, the authors compiled a brief literature review that discusses state statutes for accessibility, university policies on accessibility, and librarians’ audits on web accessibility and vendor supplied databases. To determine the accessibility of the library’s subscribed tools and services, the director of the office of institutional research & training and the director of the library, archives, and learning center used the WAVE online accessibility checker to audit the main library electronic resources: Gale Power Search, ProQuest, Yewno, EBSCO, LibGuides, SpringShare A–Z Database List, JSTOR, Adam Matthew, SAGE Research Methods, and Encyclopedia Britannica. WAVE results indicate that there are errors with 9 out of 10 electronic resources reviewed and alerts with 10 out of 10 of the audited electronic resources.
