Hello all. I recently found this site and am wondering if PG could either work with them or make use of their services.
One thing they offer is a voice over ip chat facility, so perhaps someone can make a presentation about what PG is and what they have to offer. They also offer podcasts of some programs so people can get an idea of what they offer. They might be for the blind, but I don't think they are specifically designed just to appeal to the blind. If someone wants to contact them and schedule a presentation, it might get PG some more publicity. If this link is already known or people determine that it is of no use, then my apologies for mentioning it.
Hi, Tony. This sounds worth pursuing. However, I don't think we have a "someone" working here :-) Please, feel free - and empowered - to introduce PG to them, and pursue any viable cooperative efforts. We do have a few ongoing discussions with librarians (i.e., for cataloging & for distributing MARC-format records), but they're not far along enough for the opal-online folks to just jump aboard. This looks like a worthwhile relationship to look into. -- Greg
