<p class="MsoNormal">Hello, ATHEN! My name is KimBoo York and I’m the new Assistive Tech Lab Coordinator at FSU. I am replacing Patti Lester (whom many of you know), who has gone off to greener pastures. While I have worked here at the Student Disability Resource
Center at FSU in a part-time position doing mostly alt-text work, I’m new to the whole “running the whole place” gig.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The newbie question I’ve got right now is more of a request. We do not have a written policy here regarding alternative text services, in relation to fair use and the Chafee Amendment. I’m getting with legal to discuss this matter, but
I was hoping that anyone here who works for a state university which *<b>does</b>* have such a policy would be willing to share it with me as reference? It a topic fraught with land mines and I want some clarity, especially since it concerns being able to
adequately support our student population.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please feel free to reply to my personal email (<a href="mailto:kyork@fsu.edu">kyork@fsu.edu</a>) or to this list, I’ll be looking out either way. Thank you so much!
