Just the messenger:

Dear all,

I am working on an edited journal that will be forthcoming in April of
2021. The journal will be released in printed and digital formats. My
institution is relatively new to incorporating alt text and other forms of
digital accessibility, and we are therefore seeking a consultant with
expertise in alt text and digital accessibility. We anticipate two phases
to the consultancy. First would be relatively soon to look at a recent
publication where we first used alt text and report on ways that it works,
fails, and can be improved so that we can incorporate this feedback in our
forthcoming publication. The second phase would be closer to publication,
around March, to assess the publication and identify any areas needing
redress prior to release.

Please contact me directly if you are interested in learning more, and
please feel free to share with others who might be of interest. As this is
new to us, I am happy to discuss in more detail the scope of what we are
working on. A modest consultancy stipend would be provided.

Thanks in advance,
Conor
