Importance: High

Two local businesses I would recommend are the Alamo DraftHouse and Book People. If you have enough time to evaluate  larger websites, I would include Whole Foods and Office Depot on the list.

I don't know if they would agree to such or not but if you are looking for a large company to evaluate, you might look at something like eBay, PayPal or Google's Checkout sites. With only a semester, these may be too large or complex, in that case you might contact something like a local charity that has a website or maybe the local chamber of commerce to see if they might have some leads.

Howdy folks, I'm enrolled in a graduate usability class this semester at the University of Texas at Austin and we are required to perform a usability study on a website but I'd like to take it to the next level and evaluate for various accessibility issues. Does anyone know an organization/agency/business that would be a good candidate? It would be nice if it was a local (Austin) client, but not mandatory.

Thanks in advance.
