[Nfb-krafters-korner] Fw: JoAnn's Electronic Ads

[Zimmer, Cindy]

Barb,
Sounds to me like it is something we should ask the NFB to look into for us. I think there is a NFB link or information discussing accessibility issues.

Ok, so who wants to take this company to task for not being 508 compliant? See message below.

Dear Barb


Thank you for contacting JoAnn Customer Service. I apologize for the problems people have viewing our ads. At this time our ads are in the flash format and we do not have a text only version. I apologize for the inconvenience

  Hello, I am a member of a blind crafters listserve with several members who receive your sales flyers by way of emails. The issue has come about that some of those said members are unable to access these flyers due to the picture format, and we are wondering if a text format of these flyers are available and if so how they might receive that version.
  Thank you for your time and response.
