Our first MiddLab Coffee Break of the fall will focus on creating accessible documents. We’ll review general guidelines for creating accessible materials, as well as how to ensure that the documents that you create and share with your class are accessible to all students. Some of the topics covered will include:

* Using formatting tools in Microsoft Word for accessibility purposes;
* Using optical character recognition (OCR) to make the text in PDFs accessible;
* Using SensusAccess to convert existing materials into a variety of formats.

Linux is an open-source operating system that is fundamentally relevant and empowering to research computing in many disciplines. Linux is available at Middlebury, from personal workstations to high-performance computing clusters, and this session will explore the landscape of Linux capabilities and tools on campus. This session pairs well with the Unix Shell workshop offering on June 15, 2021, and its instruction about using the terminal, although that workshop is not a prerequisite.
