Get Your Textbooks in Time for Classes

Steve Kolowich introduces us to a new database called AccessText in his recent article Textbooks for the Disabled, published by Inside Higher Ed.

Mr. Kolowich writes, "The Association of American Publishers and the University of Georgia this week (August 28, 2009) unveiled an electronic database aimed at making it easier for blind, dyslexic and otherwise impaired college students to get specialized textbooks in time for classes.

"Experts say it will allow disabled students to get their textbooks more efficiently, help colleges save money and avoid lawsuits, and protect publishers’ copyrights."

AccessText can help:

Contact AccessText to find out if this is the solution for you.
