<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in">Hi everyone,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in">Hope you all had a wonderful summer.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in">We currently use a proprietary database to track all our disability services, accommodations, exams, technology, alt format, etc. For the alternate format piece, students complete an online request form with the
information for the book they want in an alternate format: Title, Edition, Author, ISBN, Publisher, and include the course, term, instructor, date of textbook purchase and price paid. When they submit this online form, the information gets populated in our
database. If we already have the requested alt format on file, there is a field that will show, “Item in inventory”. We have the ability to run a number of reports in the database, for example, we can run a report to show all the requests received for any
given term and year, a report to show all the requests made by a specific student, and much more.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in">We are looking at perhaps moving to Accommodate by Symplicity as our database. I recall asking on this list last January if anyone was using Accommodate, and it appeared that none of you were. I am hoping that
perhaps things have changed since then.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in">So, if anyone is using Accommodate, can you tell me how the alternate format module works? Do you have the ability to run reports and pull out specific information? Is there a front end where students can enter
their alt format requests? Does it have the ability to show whether or not the requested alt format is one that you already have? Does it work well?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in">Also, can you track technology in Accommodate? We have loaner equipment that students borrow, and we need a way to track what technology students have out on loan, and what technology is left in inventory.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in">If there are still no Accommodate users out there, I would appreciate it if anyone using any of the commercially available databases could answer my questions above.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in">Many thanks, and hope you all have a great fall term.<o:p></o:p></p>
