The Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) has published a guide on how museums and galleries can make their collections more accessible to blind and partially-sighted visitors.
Shifting Perspectives builds on the work carried out during CultureLink, a 12-month programme by the RNIB and the Museums, Libraries and Archives Council that aimed to offer blind and partially-sighted people access to the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad.

• The September issue of Museum Practice will explain how museums can become more accessible to blind and partially-sighted visitors through audio descriptive and touch tours, and the use of new technology.
