[NABS-L] Pearson

[Yingling, Valerie]

As a reminder, NFB has engaged in a collaboration agreement with Pearson<https://nfb.org/about-us/press-room/national-federation-blind-and-pearson-announce-agreement-promote-equal-access>. As a part of the agreement, Pearson has established a communications channel through which the NFB can alert Pearson to accessibility issues that blind students are experiencing. This will help Pearson to respond and remediate barriers more quickly, and in turn Pearson will keep the NFB updated on resolutions. If you encounter barriers with Pearson products this fall, please contact Valerie Yingling, legal program coordinator at the NFB, at vyingling at nfb.org<mailto:vyingling at nfb.org>.

Also, Pearson has included in MyLab and other products a link to "contact the publisher." If you have usability recommendations, such as improvements to alt text, please use this link to contact Pearson directly. You can use this link to report accessibility barriers, but please also alert Valerie Yingling to any Pearson accessibility concerns.
