Announcement ---

We are conducting a study to understand the benefits of construction and
consumption of tactile graphics. Insights from this study will help us
inform the design of an accessible tactile graphics authoring tool. We are
recruiting blind and visually impaired users interested in participating.
The study will be conducted in the California Bay Area between the months of
March and April and last between 1.5 hours. Participants will be compensated
$50 for their time.  We will work with each participant on their preferred
location, and any transportation costs incurred will also be compensated.
