Ebsco members expressed strong interest in working with us collaboratively on identifying accessibility problems with their products.
Due to ALA conference in late January, Ebsco members are very busy preparing themselves for that conference, however they agreed to pay more attention on accessibility and working with us after the conference.
Accessibility testing is not part of QA process.
Ebsco members are willing to study the detailed accessibility report on the EbscoHost interface compiled by Hadi, general accessibility report, and the video clip demonstrating some of the accessibility problems with Ebsco:
- video clip illustrating the accessibility problems with Ebsco database
- General accessibility report on the default interface of Ebsco database
- Detailed accessibility report on two most commonly used pages of the text-only version of Ebsco database
Action Items
- Jon puts together an agenda for our next teleconference.
