Jamal, I recommend against submitting anything which is not in RTF
format.
Anything which is not RTF ends up being a potential source of reviewer's
grief.

I am showing my ignorance here about acceptable submission formats to
BookShare, since I do not know whether HTML is one of them. If it is,
there are specific accessibility standards for coding tables, which make
them accessible with screen readers in a web browser. For example, the
screen reader can speak the row and column labels associated with each
data cell. I think a good source of HTML accessibility info is at

I'm working on a book that has a lot of data from youth surveys. The
last couple of chapters present the data in various tables. I don't like
tables, so I usually skip them. Any ideas on how I can make them as easy
as
possible to read?
TIA,
Paula
