<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">My first reaction to Cheyenne’s message was to check the SBCTC site to see where that work is being done at the state level.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">It does feel like something appropriate for SBCTC to address, given that accessibility crosses all institutional departments, and all institutions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Also, just a reminder about WACTCLC… The existing and previous salaries (mine, currently; and previously, Shellie’s as well) are paid by participants in the Alma / Primo program, to support participants in that
program. Only 25 out of 32 CTC institutions currently participate and pay into that program (with a few of the bigger institutions, TCC, Spokane, and Clark, as non-participants).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Certainly, a new program, with the same (or different) set of CTC participants could be set up to hire paid staff for other types of work. But it wouldn’t necessarily be a direct re-allocation of money previously
paid to Shellie. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">At least, that’s my initial interpretation of how WACTCLC would apply to this topic.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">All,</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">At an Access360 convening meeting yesterday, we were discussing the work involved in testing technologies for accessibility compliance (VPATS, WCAG 2.0, etc.) and that trusted testers are really well suited
for this work. It got me thinking about our libraries and how we all use many of the same programs/databases that require a thorough testing and then a “stamp of approval” for accessibility that we can all stand behind. Then, this got me thinking back to a
conversation we had maybe a year or two ago in LLC/WACTCLC about the idea of shared specialty staffing that we could all use or benefit from.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">I know we are all currently seeing savings from the consortium not filling Shellie’s vacant position and savings are great. But would WACTCLC members be interested discussing the idea of temporarily hiring
a “Trusted Tester” for library resources so that we could all know which of our resources meet required benchmarks for accessibility?</span><o:p></o:p></p>
