Hi all. I recall a while back a discussion about these flipping books
and concerns about accessibility. At the time they had not raised their
heads on our campus but now they have and I can't recall the details of
the discussion. The one I tested was keyboard accessible but had no
recognizable content for JAWS at all. Does anyone know if there are
different levels of accessibility produced by different tools that
create these?

And how are your campuses responding to the discussion about using
these? Is anyone just saying "no" to them? And if you are using them,
what alternatives are being provided for access?

Thanks!

Melanie
