make accessible signs for venue

[codersquid]

I was at a convention recently where people didn't give right of way in elevators to people in scooters, and I found some online discussion on making events accessible. The convention I was at with the problem had on order of 5000 people and the venue was spread out over two hotel towers. We probably won't have the same problems, but if anyone is making signs, check through best practices for picking size and placement. And check for what information would be helpful to include in information about where talks are.

If there is an elevator area, we could set up a sign reminding people to give right of way to people who have priority. Here is a good symbol of accessibility. http://accesssymbol.com/

I could get help making a stencil or laser cutting some signs.
