     ABOUT EASI (EQUAL ACCESS TO SOFTWARE AND INFORMATION)

Since its founding in 1988 under the EDUCOM umbrella, EASI has
worked to increase access to information technology by persons
with disabilities.  EASI affiliated with AAHE (the American
Association for Higher Education) in 1994.  Volunteers from EASI
have been instrumental in the establishment of _Information
Technology and Disabilities_ as still another step in this
process.  Our mission has been to serve as a resource primarily
to the education community by providing information and guidance
in the area of access to information technologies.  We seek to
spread this information to schools, colleges, universities and
into the workplace.  EASI makes extensive use of the Internet to
disseminate this information, including three discussion lists:
EASI@SJUVM.STJOHNS.EDU (a general discussion on computer access),
AXSLIB-L@SJUVM.STJOHNS.EDU (a discussion on library access
issues) and ABLE-JOB (a discussion on disabilities and
employment).  To join any of these lists, send a "subscribe"
command to LISTSERV@SJUVM.STJOHNS.EDU including the name of the
discussion you want to join plus your own first and last name.
EASI also maintains several items on the St. John's (New York)
University gopher under the menu heading "Disability and
Rehabilitation Resources."
