[Athen] AccessText News

[Ali Steenis via athen-list]

Hi all,

Agreed that this is a big shock. How are folks planning on moving forward with ATN no longer as a resource?

Warmly,

Greetings,



I just received this email. Have any of you heard anything related to this? I haven't worked in higher ed disability resources long enough to remember a time before AccessText existed. I'm not looking forward to alternate format work without it.
