[Athen] [EXT]Re: Fwd: Access Text Network Returns!!

Susan,
Did you see that email that someone posted about what Justin Romack has
done? He's working on a searchable database for publishers.

Here's a clip from that email if you didn't find it.

Justin Romack, a colleague from TAMU on the ATHEN board, is working on a
new publisher look up site and you can review what is currently available
at findaccessiblebooks.org
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/findaccessiblebooks.org/__;!!JYXjzlvb!gCgllmxraB_plwf8r6raVrf5ytbFf5ypiQgr-WbvUUT7Jrb0ruQ0aK68pbd2bcy9guPoDivmzbTNtGwzflFy9lcagBoprV8i$>
(linked).
This should help expedite the process of finding contact information as you
reach out to publishers.

> Dear All:

>

> We write to apprise you of the restoration of the Access Text Network

> (ATN) by the Association of American Publishers (AAP) following the sudden

> and unexpected termination by the previous host earlier this year. Working

> with our publisher members and the new vendor, we are preparing to

> re-launch the ATN portal this week. In re-launching the site, it became

> clear that rebuilding/restructuring of some of the site's functions would

> be necessary. As such, ATN users will need to create new accounts when the

> site is re-launched at https://accesstext.org/.

>

> The process is straight-forward (and likely similar to the previous

> process). Each Disability Student Services Office (DSSO) will create an

> institutional profile, register the email addresses associated with the

> DSSO, and provide the requested information in the appropriate fields in

> the portal. You, on behalf of your institution, will need to accept the

> Authorized User Membership Agreement, which defines your responsibilities

> and privileges with respect to access to the portal and the use of the

> Publisher Works for which you have requested an alternative format copy

> (this agreement is materially similar to the previous agreement that

> governed Authorized Users). Upon receipt of your information, the site's

> administrator will verify your institution and authorize access to the

> portal. Your DSSO primary contact will receive notification when the

> authentication process has been completed.

>

> Please note that the authorization process will take some time. If you

> have not received your credentials by early next week, please reply to this

> email to follow-up. Technical issues will likely arise; we will work as

> quickly as reasonably possible to address the issues that arise. This has

> not been a turn-key restoration.

>

> We are also happy to connect you with the permissions department of the

> relevant publisher for any requests that the system cannot yet meet. To

> facilitate this, please provide all the relevant information regarding the

> textbook/educational material your student is requesting to this email

> address (accesstext at publishers.org<mailto:accesstext at publishers.org>).

>

> Thank you for your patience as we worked to restore the ATN service. We

> also thank the DSS offices that offered and provided their assistance to

> AAP as we worked through this process. Your assistance is greatly

> appreciated.
