aserl-accessibilityig Mailing List: Recruiting and Conducting Accessibility Testing with Users - Still time to participate!

[Beth Ashmore (beashmor]

Hi ASERL Accessibility Listserv,

There is still time to share how your library is recruiting and conducting
accessibility testing with functionally diverse users on their campuses.
Please answer the questions below or just share your advice with the
listserv.


   1.

   How do you recruit users to conduct accessibility testing on your
   library website and electronic resources? Consider campus partners like
   Disability Resource Offices or  Student Groups.



   1.

   How do you reach users who may not register with Disability Resource
   Offices but still have a unique accessibility perspective due to other
   health conditions  e.g. attention deficit hyperactivity disorder,
   epilepsy, rheumatoid arthritis?


We will be compiling your responses as well as research from other sources
to share as part of a toolkit on accessibility user testing. The group will
be reviewing your responses at our next meeting on March 5th.



Thanks,

ASERL Accessibility Working Group on Policy and Advocacy
