Kes: This is a crosspost
of the survey I just posted to the Arisia community LJ. If possible, please reply on the Arisia LJ in order to encourage conversation.
Arisia is committed to being an event which promotes diversity among
its attendees, doing its best to address members' access issues and
accommodation requests. This year Arisia is trying to grow Access
Services. While Access Services has a small budget, we believe that
access is an attitude, and with a willingness to listen and the
application of imagination and innovation, we'll be able to do better.
Please be as specific as possible in your answers. You can also e-mail your reply to access at arisia . org. Feel free to forward and repost this survey.
1. Are there access issues and accommodations which you would like to have at Arisia '10?
2. Would requiring advance notice on access services be a hardship? If not, would you be willing to notify us in advance of which services you would be using? (This allows us to get a more precise count on how much of or how many of something we should have available (i.e., Braille or large-print programs, wheelchair-accessible hotel rooms, etc.)
3. Would you be interested in participating in or attending accessible art events, such as a panel on tactile art or a described tour of the art show?
4. Do you have skills or experience which you would like to contribute to Access Services? We could really use people with knowledge of wheelchair access issues, closed captioning and real-time transcription (including liveblogging), accessible games, and making art accessible.
Also stay tuned to Access Services new Web page at
http://2010.arisia.org/Access
which we will be adding to over the next few months.
