A Scribe or Notetaker is an accessibility accommodation that provides real-time written notes or transcripts for individuals who have difficulty taking their own notes due to physical, cognitive, or learning disabilities. Also known as note-taking assistance or transcription support, this service helps users stay engaged and retain important information during meetings, lectures, or training sessions. By offering clear, organized notes, scribes or notetakers reduce barriers to participation and improve comprehension, making educational and workplace environments more inclusive and accessible.
Begin by coordinating with the scribe ahead of time to discuss the setting and topics. Provide any necessary materials or outlines to help them prepare. During sessions, maintain clear communication and ask for clarification if needed. Afterward, review the notes promptly to confirm accuracy and request updates if required. Regular feedback helps improve the quality of notes and supports ongoing collaboration.
