Bill Drew (Morrisville) is the new Chair of the SUNYLA Automation Committee. The committee is evaluating the SUNYConnect database vendors to see to what extent their sites comply with web site accessibility guidelines.

Here is Bill's call for volunteers:
The automation committee has been charged by the executive board with investigating how well database web access complies with ADA/W3C guidelines. I am looking for volunteers to look at the following databases available to all SUNY libraries with one volunteer per database. The list of databases with the volunteers:

AccuNet/AP Photo Archive -- Dave Ritchie -- Cortland
Dialog@CARL -- Michael Matis -- Albany
FirstSearch -- Chris Hebblewaite -- Oswego
Gale Databases -- Kate Majewski -- Delhi
IAC Health Reference Center -- Evelyn Rosenthal -- Dutchess
IAC SearchBank -- Charlie Cowling -- Brockport
Uncover Reveal -- Kay Benjamin -- Optometry

Results will be announced sometime in November.
