Is someone in this group planning to enroll in ACRL's online seminar on
e-collection development (for details see the announcement below)? If
yes, could you find out whether accessibility/usability of electronic
collections is being recognized and addressed, and share this
information with the group? It would be sad if this ACRL-sponsored
seminar would ignore the needs for accessible e-collections.

Thanks,
