E-Text

The SSD office is equipped to produce E-text for our students with print-related disabilities. E-text is by far the most versatile of alternative formats, and we have been encouraging students to use it as often as possible. Students who have visual impairments can use E-text with screen enlargement software, voice output software, or refreshable Braille displays. A book can be reproduced as E-text in two to three days (once the book has been acquired).

Please note that E-text does not work well with mathematics, many scientific textbooks, or coursepacks. These types of text will continue to be produced using audiotape.
