Great posterette! A little outdated as it is from 2001, but it highlights the helpfulness of increased accessibility of local government websites and the cost savings/efficiencies that are possible from undertaking accessibility initiatives. I like that the posterette included privacy concerns of citizens as it relates to publicly available information such as police reports and property records - an important issue!

It took me several years of struggling with the heavy door to my building, sometimes having to wait until a person stronger came along, to realize that the door was an accessibility problem, not only for me, but for others as well. And I did not notice, until one of my students pointed it out, that the lack of signs that could be read from a distance at my university forced people with mobility impairments to expend a lot of energy unnecessarily, searching for rooms and offices. Although I have encountered this difficulty myself on days when walking was exhausting to me, I interpreted it, automatically, as a problem arising from my illness (as I did with the door), rather than as a problem arising from the built environment having been created for too narrow a range of people and situations.
