Ok here come my questions for the panel (or for now) from across the waves -
not sure that makes me disembodied but I feel it sadly not being able to
come to ATIA or CSUN this year...

If you want to embed audio or video in Web 2.0 type pages using the free
editors such as FCKeditor, is the JW FLV Media Player 3.14
http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=JW_FLV_Player a good option? (A
transcript would be seen beneath the player)

What do you offer students and staff who wish to change the background
colours of web pages?
Show them how to do it in every browser as in 'My Web, My Way'
http://www.bbc.co.uk/accessibility/
Offer a set of homemade CSS files?
Show them how to change the code themselves?
An extra tool bar for each browser used, such as Accessibar in Firefox?

Policy about PDFs - what do you say to Faculty? Just enough to fit on a
postcard please!

Best wishes E.A.

Hello All:

As you may be aware, the ATIA conference is this week. On Thursday, me, Dan
Comden & Jayme Johnson will be on a panel presenting on the topic: Access in
the University Setting – Information Resources and Best Practices. We’ll be
taking questions during the second half of the session which runs 9:15 –
10:15 a.m. EST. I though it might be interesting to hook into the ATHEN
network by letting ATHEN folks answer questions from off-site via the
Internet. It would advertise ATHEN, demonstrate it as an information
resource and also increase our knowledge base during the Q & A. Is anyone
interested in participating? Can anyone suggest the best way to do this –
what software would be needed? I would try to do voice through Internet but
I have never tried this and don’t have time to put too much overhead into
setting this up.

Thanks,
Howard
