Dear all,
As suggested, at Leeds we have looked at the accessibility issues of
Informs and possible ways of improving accessibility. We also have
guidelines for using Informs tutorials with a screen reader. However, I
think ultimately the Informs software will have to be developed further
to make tutorials truly accessible.

If anyone is interested in our findings or the guidelines (already sent
to Keith) please get in touch with me direct and I will forward. 

Best wishes,
Helen

Dear All,

I have had a couple of very helpful replies to my message asking if
anyone had tested Informs tutorials for accessibility.  Many thanks to
my respondents.

Both people mentioned that Leeds University had done some testing.   If
you are the person or persons at Leeds who did that testing, or can
forward this to them, I would be very pleased to make contact.   

Thanks,


Best wishes,





Keith
