>> Hi Chad,
>> Here is some information you can feel free to pass along to your group. At this time, it appears we are only in need of a few more participants. We encourage participants across the country since this is done remotely and not in our lab. Please let me know if you receive this email. Best, Melissa

>> The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and its partners (including American Council of the Blind, Association for the BVI, Blind Service Association, Learning Ally, National Federation of the Blind-WI Chapter, and Vision Forward, Milwaukee Public Libraries, Milwaukee Public Museum, and Milwaukee Art Museum) are collaborating to develop digital library design guidelines on accessibility, usability, and utility for blind and visually impaired (BVI) users. The project will benefit the approximately 20.6 million Americans with significant vision loss who cannot use digital libraries effectively because of the libraries’ sight-centered design. The three-year project will create design guidelines on accessibility, usability and utility to address the help-seeking situations that blind users experience when interacting with digital libraries. The goal: to make digital libraries more universally accessible
>>  
>> The study is looking to identify a few more individuals with print disabilities that want to participate in the “diary” phase of the study. Those interested in participating will complete a prescreening form to determine their eligibility for the study. The diary group will complete a pre-questionnaire via Qualtrics, an orientation task and 2 search tasks for two Digital Libraries (DL). Participants will have two (2) weeks to complete the tasks and record as many help-seeking situations encountered in each DL in diary format (Word documents). Following the use of each DL, the diary participants will complete a post-questionnaire via Qualtrics. Follow-up interviews will be incorporated to provide clarification on diary or post-questionnaire responses. The whole process takes approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes.
>> Each participant will be offered $100 Amazon gift card for their participation in the study. Please see the consent form for more details and contact Melissa Castillo castil44 at uwm.edu if you are interested.
