[Arizona-students] ASU Data Bases?

Hi,

Got a question for the ASU students on this list.  Anyone have any tips for
navigating the ASU library's online data base system with JAWS?  I need to
use 'em for about three research projects this semester and am having little
luck.  I think the sites are probably accessible, just cluttered and
confusing.

There are certain data bases I get to and can't find the search page.  Or
maybe it's the search field or link or something.  I don't know.  Some don't
give me problems, but there are quite a few that do.  ERIC is one of them
that does give me difficulty, but there are others.  That is just the one
that first came to my mind as I write this.

Also, if you personally don't know much about the data base system, is there
anyone you could forward this to that does?  According to my DSS director,
there are no other JAWS users on West's campus.  So I thought I'd connect
with some of you guys for tips.

All info is appreciated.

Thanks everyone.

Allison
