[Athen] [Fwd: New Concept in Textbooks]

Interesting you should use the wording "professors may think electronic equals accessible". Here is my presentation from the 2008 Accessing Higher Ground conference discussing that very topic:

Hope this helps --- Dann

Hi Melanie, 


I've not seen this, but electronic = access is definitely a misunderstanding that I've been combating for some time now with faculty.  Would definitely be interested in hearing about this process and accessibility issues!

Has anyone seen books produced using this process?  I wrote to them and asked about accessibility.  It concerns me because professors may think electronic equals accessible.
