Annotation	This pamphlet is one of a series on accessibility of information and communication technology for older people and people with disabilities. It discusses the design implications of the increasing use of public terminals, such as self service systems for consumers and information kiosks for provision of public information, for older people and people with disabilities. Some guidelines for good design in the following aspects of public terminals are outlined: physical access, physical design, input to the system (keyboards, card readers), interaction with the system, output from the system, touchscreens, and contactless cards.
