Please forward this widely to CHI-Accessibility folks. We are looking

make all 2020 chi papers accessible is going to fully rely on
volunteer efforts this year.

Hi there,

Kyle Rector and I, the CHI 2020 accessibility chairs, are aiming to
make this year's CHI proceedings the most accessible ever. To achieve
this, we are calling for help from the SIGCHI community.

If you have access to Adobe Acrobat Pro, and would be willing to spend
a couple of hours making sure the figure descriptions provided by
authors make it into their final published papers, please contact us
at pdfaccessibility at chi2020.acm.org.

Thank you!
