Dr. Schmetzke -
    Thank you for your concern.  The ACRL 2003 National Conference web
site was outsourced by ACRL, however ACRL is working with the firm to
address your concerns.  The ACRL web site itself is being completely
redesigned, and one of the goals is to meet accessibility standards.

        To the Web Designer of the ACRL 2003 Conference,
         
        Please make the homepage to the ACRL 2003 Conference
(http://www.ala.org/acrl/charlotte/)
        accessible to all. Through the "eyes" of a screenreader, the
information available on this major gateway page currently presents
itself as follows:
