[blindlaw] Sharepoint

[Singh, Nandini]

I think it also depends on any sort of customizations that may be implemented on your agency/firm's Share Point. For many tasks, I cannot comfortably use our setup.

As I recall, there was a resolution a couple years ago about this. I think back then they said that newer versions of share point  were accessible, but that the federal government was using an older version which was not accessible. It might depend on the version they are using. I recall that when I used to work for a nonprofit, we used SharePoint for a project, and I found it to be very unusable.

Have a great day.
