Call Paul Hastings at Wheelock College in Boston - I believe he has done
some work in this area.

Subject: [Athen] Online Communities

 

Athen,

 

I am interested in the accessibility of online communities including
(but not exclusively) Facebook.  I am reporting to a committee which is
evaluating implementation of online communities on campus.  I searched
through some emails and I didn't see much discussion on this issue.  I
don't want to recreate the wheel if online community sites have been
evaluated already.    Another question is whether people with
disabilities are using these online communities?

 

PS I am looking forward to attending the Higher Ground conference in
Boulder Colorado for the first time this year!
