[Salisbury, Justin Mark]

Hello, everyone!

   This message was sent via the blindmath mailing list earlier today by a blind PhD Candidate in Computer Science.  He is looking for information about blind computer users' experiences with website accessibility.  Please take a second to read his email.

Thank you!

Subject: [Blindmath] [research] website accessibility

Hi all,

As part of a potential publication, I'm conducting research related to website accessibility. I would really appreciate for you to
send me a quick email answering these three questions.

Please only answer if you are a screen reader user.

First, please put "[research]", that's left-bracket, research, right-bracket, in the subject line of the email.

My email address is:
sbahram at ncsu.edu

Question 1:
What website or websites do you find the most accessible. Please list full URL's.

Question 2:
What website or websites do you find the least accessible. Please list full URL's.

Question 3:
What website, or websites, do you have to use, whether it be for work, school, business, or anything else, even though they might
not be as accessible as you prefer? Please list full URL's.

Optional section:

Feel free to explain your answers further in this section; for example, why you feel a certain website is accessible or not
accessible.

Thank you so much for your participation. If I don't get at least 20 or 30 respondents, we won't really be able to use the data, so
please forward this email to anyone at all who uses a screen reader.

Your provided URL's will of course be made anonymous as soon as I get them.

Thanks again

Take care,
Sina
