DESCRIPTION
Clients with disabilities are having issues navigating the Morisset Library, with help from
bluetooth beacons we can guide them to major areas in the library using an accessible mobile web application. The web application is hosted for free here, by netlify.com. Each bluetooth beacon costed us about $33 CAD with shipping and taxes included. We were unable to get much work with connecting the beacons to the site itself; an app (using Android Studio, for example) might be a better course of action. Combining the two concepts together could be an even better idea: have a simple and accessible site describe the application and how it works, while also providing a direct download link of the app.
