voice recognition software

[Jon Gorman]

Perhaps finding some mailing lists focused on accessibility software for
students, or perhaps a more general list for libraries (or library tech)?
(lita-l and collib-l comes to mind, perhaps maybe even code4lib).

Most places have some sort of accessibility office, perhaps one of your
member libraries has one that you can talk to?

>From what little experience I have most places have a dedicated workstation
w/ the software like this pre-installed, although it would be pretty cool
to have every workstation w/ a mic or perhaps have headphones for this.
Room dynamics of sound and echoing might come into play and require a bit
of experimentation.
