[Athen] graphic novels

[Leyna Bencomo]

Hi all,

Has anyone had to work with graphic novels?  We have a required textbook that is a graphic novel and a blind student who needs to read it.  I've asked the publisher and they say there is not even a separate pdf, it's all drawn.  I hate to rewrite the entire book but it looks like that is what its coming down to.  Bookshare says they don't have the resources.  Suggestions anyone?  Has anyone done this already?  The book, by the way, is THE COMPLETE PERSEPOLIS by Marjane Satrapi ISBN:  9780375714832

Functional Accessibility Evaluator (FAE) 2.0
FAE 2.0 is a free service of the University of Illinois that allows you to spider a website for W3C WCAG 2.0 requirements and generate summary reports to use for accessibility auditing, planning and training.  Users can select the depth of spidering and a ruleset that represents the technologies they are using to make the website accessible.
