This gopher site was designed to provide a wide range of information services to people who are blind or visually impaired as well as to other concerned individuals. The Travable list was formed to discuss all aspects of travel for people with disabilities. The intended purpose is to allow a format to share ideas on how to improve the travel experience for anyone with a disability. It is indeed very fitting that our first issue to focus on Web sites under the Online Information and Networking Department should mention that EASI itself has begun construction on a Web site. EASI now has both a home page for general activities as well as a home page dedicated to disseminating information about access to science, engineering and math information.
Program now has a Web page.
Offerings include links to science education resources, ftp sites, and information about adaptive technology. This site includes a Disability Mall, informative newsletters, and links to other disability related sites. This new Web site has been designed as an information resource for researchers, coaches, athletes, teachers, physiotherapists and students in higher education. It includes an annotated bibliographic database on wheelchair sports and information on the International Paralympic Committee. Resources include articles about physical disabilities, visual impairments, learning and speaking disabilities, and assistive technology.
