[NFB-Idaho] Research to improve access to museums for visually-impaired persons.

Sat Jul 14 21:00:00 UTC 2018

Sure. I'm busy Monday all day, but should have afternoons  and evenings free this coming week except for Monday.

National Federation of the Blind of Idaho

“The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; Blindness is not what holds you back.”

Hi Dana,

I don't have any current experience with Windows 7 or Internet Explorer.  I
want to learn more about Window Eyes as a screen reader, but I don't use
Windows on my computers so I can't test it myself.

Would you be willing to have me visit and you show me the situation, and in
the process go through the survey with you?
