Hi folks, As an information professional I read a lot of "for librarians" publications. The current issue of Ariadne (http://www.ariadne.ac.uk/) has several articles that might be of interest to some in this group:
"Involving Users in the Development of a Web Accessibility Tool" http://www.ariadne.ac.uk/issue44/craven/ ".... how the EC-funded European Internet Accessibility Observatory Project is involving users in the development of a Web accessibility checking and monitoring tool." "Web Accessibility Revealed: The Museums, Libraries and Archives Council Audit" http://www.ariadne.ac.uk/issue44/petrie-weisen/ "... a comprehensive Web accessibility audit involving extensive user testing as well as automatic testing of Web sites." "Towards a Pragmatic Framework for Accessible e-Learning" http://www.ariadne.ac.uk/issue44/phipps/ "...while recognising the importance of accessibility in e-learning resources, query the universal applicability of the Web Accessibility Initiative's guidelines and describe a pragmatic framework which provides a broader context for their use." "Evaluating Web Sites for Accessibility with Firefox" http://www.ariadne.ac.uk/issue44/lauke/ "Patrick Lauke outlines how Mozilla Firefox can be used in conjunction with the Web Developer Toolbar to carry out a preliminary accessibility review." Apologies to those who already know of this publication or these articles, but for those who don't or are not involved in "library land"-type publications, it might be a useful resource to check sometimes.
